Your will, Your way, ALWAYS!

Recently I've been feeling a little bit down!! and I was looking for some encouragement so last night, I went to my handy dandy DailyBible app on my phone!! haha and the verse of the day was the following:
Psalm 27:14
"Wait for the Lord, be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord."
and oh my!!!! LOL i don't know if you understand the feeling of when things happen EXACTLY when they need to happen!! but that's what it was last night for me!!! I was thinking about my dream girl and just girls in general and was feeling anxious!! i was like ... "GOD, what's your plan for me?? When will I finally be united with my dream girl?" and just like those kind of thoughts...and things just didn't always go the way i wanted! I'd rely on my own powers instead of God's and when I read this verse...."Wait for the Lord, be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord."...wooow!! I really needed to hear that verse at that exact time!! "take heart!!" haha have faith!! TRUST IN HIM ALONE!! "don't rely on your own strength Jireh!! or your "lucky boxers" LOLOL! TRUST IN ME!!!" I heard God telling me this through that verse!!! and then one of my new fave songs started to come into my head!...Lay Me Down by Chris Tomlin! here are some of the lyrics: "I lay me down I'm not my own, I belong to You alone"!!! and woww!!! that is so powerful!!! I am God's! He CHOSE me!! yet, sometimes i want to take things in my own hands when I should rely on God because His way is the best way!! and becasue I belong to Him!! He's adopted me!! I have inherited sonship and will be coheirs with Christ!!! that is just so amazing!..."there's no life apart from you" yeah!! it's just so true!! I've been trying to do some things wiht my own strength and try to live my life without the need or trust on God!  I need to pray more!! and yeahh!! the bridge of the song! "It will be my joy to say, Your will, Your way, ALWAYS!" that's amazing! because I really just have been thinking about this too!! You can always say, "yes God, you are sovereign, do whatever you please" but to say, "God, YOUR will for me is my joy! You alone are sovereign!" is sooo different! becasue for me, when things I want to happen don't happen the way I personally want them to, I get upset/sad (mostly sad)! BUT, "It will be my joy to say YOUR WILL, YOUR WAY!" so i shouldn't be sad!!! because the fact that God has a plan for me is a privilege!!! it's amazing!!! because He alone is all knowing!! I don't know anything!! if I had to live my life with my will, and my way, I would probably just fail!! but God's will for me is a privilege!! I am Lucky to have been chosen by Him and His will for me is sovereign and I will take joy in knowing that I and trust in Him!! and I can wait for Him and know that his will, his way is the best for me!  I can wait for the Lord, be strong and take heart and wait for Him alone!



Jireh!
