“And we know that all
things work together
for good to those who
love God, to those
who are the called
according to His purpose.”
Romans 8:28-29
(NKJV)
To let go and let God’s will prevail in your life is the
essence of faith. To really trust and
turn everything over to God means giving up the expectations of what your life
is supposed to be like. When you commit yourself wholeheartedly to God, you
don’t necessarily get what you thought you wanted or would have.
You trust God and get God’s plan. But you can be sure that Jesus knows your
heart and your prayers, and is working things out for good. You can trust that He knows your heartaches
and sorrows, and that He loves you through it all. Yield all to Him and His glorious plans will
be accomplished for His glory and your good.
When you give your life to Jesus, you can trust Him with
your dreams and your plans. Even when
your heart breaks because things seem to have gone awry, trust Him. He will work things out in a way you might
not expect, but His plans are perfect and better than any we have.
There is blessing and contentment when we submit to His
will. Then we know the peace that comes
from resting in God’s sovereignty.
