I Trust You

This week has been an interesting week. I finally got over being sick, Praise God!!! God has been challenging me this week to let go. I finally let go of my siblings, forgave them for all the hurt and pain they have brought me, and I'm done. No more. No more crying over them. No more letting them control me. I'm done. This is a huge burden off my shoulders. I am able to grow closer to God now. I still have a long way to go, but I have also come a long way. i am able to trust God more and let Him take care of me... instead of me trying to take care of myself. Proverbs 3:5-6 is an amazing verse that has helped me through my trust problems.

"Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him and He will direct your paths."

I love this verse. It is something I have struggled with for so long, and still struggle with. It is something I have tried for so long to overcome. Everyday I come one step closer to trusting God with ALL my heart. Not leaning on my understanding is also hard for me. I dont like not being in control of things, so it isnt easy to fully lean on God. But I have seen how important it really is. I also struggle with trying to take credit for what God does instead of giving Him all the glory.

Father, thank you for giving me the strength and courage to let go of my siblings, to give my relationships with them up to You. The only way I was able to do this was through You. Thank you for all the blessings You have given me. I am so grateful and undeserving. Help me to trust You with all my heart and lean on You. I love you.
