We don't have to have our lives planned and figured out, because where is the trust in that? God knows the plans He has for us, and that is good enough reason to rely on Him for guidance! <br />That song you mentioned, I didn't know if I had heard it before, so I looked it up and it was really good! The lyrics that stood out to me were, "Oh God be greater, than the worries in my life. Be stronger, than the weakness in my mind. Be louder, let Your glory come alive. Be magnified."<br />I totally get wanting to have a plan and have things mapped out. But I think it is important to know that Gods plans are far better than what I can come up with on my own! He has a plan for YOU and He has a plan for me, it's up to us to trust Him even when we don't know the next step. <br />I'm so glad you liked this post, Mallory! I always like hearing what you think of my posts! <3 Showers of Blessingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12664449607618161704noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9208920449471483174.post-36302240184413062742018-08-03T18:22:38.794-04:002018-08-03T18:22:38.794-04:00I've found myself doing the same thing.

Like the song "Magnify" where he says, "I don't need to see everything-just more of You. Take it all take it all away; magnify no other name. Open up open up my heart, to You." I just need to trust, and seek Him!! I'm kind-of a control freak, so learning to know it's okay to NOT understand has been quite the lesson. But He's helping me. <3 Wonderful post, Brooklyn!

Because there will always be the why's and unknowns, trusting God in each instance is the only way find His peace in all this! <br />Thank you, and your welcome!

It’s hard to fully trust Him when we don’t understand but that’s what trust really is. <br />I love the poem you included at top. <br />That was sweet of you to link it back to my blog <3. <br />Great post, Brooklyne!

It tells someone what they did wrong but I just changed it to positive tense. So the things it lists are: obey the voice, receive correction, trust in the Lord and draw near to God. Remembering those things has really helped me. <br />Rachel :)Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08723477733847420894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9208920449471483174.post-9151703735505391842018-08-01T14:33:47.646-04:002018-08-01T14:33:47.646-04:00Camp was super duper fun!
