Movement

Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight

Proverbs 3: 5-6

Recently God has moved in my life in ways that I would not be able to guess if you had asked me a few years ago. Have you ever dealt with a time in your life where you felt that God was not moving you and you really wanted to be moved? As I look back and reflect on all the struggles that I have been through throughout my life, I can also reflect and be grateful for those times as well. When you are going through the gutter it can be painful, frustrating, and sometimes you feel really stuck. I felt stuck in my life, more than just a few times. Sometimes I still feel like I’m still being unstuck from past traumas, issues, or old habits, yet everyday is a new day.

As I continue to move forward and put my trust on God, I can’t help but to feel a sense of peace trusting that if God has brought me so far, then there’s still so much more for me. Have you ever felt that? Truly resting and trusting in that state of mind that God has your back? Maybe you’d ask yourself, “is it truly possible for me?” Is it possible for you to rest and trust? I’ve been feeling led to write a lot on trust, I believe it is because as messy humans we are trusting that God has a purpose and a plan which is important, for basically all humans in my opinion, but also for your mental peace of mind.

How can we really enjoy life if we are worried about a future that may never come? Or a future that may? We can’t. However, we can take things day by day trusting in the Lord with our whole heart, keeping that prayer life up as we submit our ways to him through prayer, and yes God will make our plans straight.

When I look back I can see how God has been here with me guiding my hand and closing and opening doors for me when I felt stuck, not moving, no movement… but here I am and I look back and see how God actually was moving in all of those stages of my life. So for anyone who is currently feeling stuck in their lives I’d like to say, it’s okay to take it day by day, you are moving. There is movement.

God bless you! Have a blessed week ahead of you, till next time 🙂
