This week has been a real eye-opener for me... I have really just been impacted with the FACT that I NEED to surrender <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">EVERYTHING</span> to God and TRUST Him. On Sunday it was SO great - all of those songs and and scriptures about surrenduring everything to God and stuff - just really felt God reminding me again that I DO NEED to surrender to Him.<br /> I often get so... I guess you could call it "worried"... but whatever it is - not surrendering EVERYTHING to God when I think about my life: If there really IS that "special someone" out there who could love me enough to want to spend his life with me...or if I will just be single all my life...or if God will make me marry someone I never really liked that much - haha - then, of course, I felt the urge to read I Kissed Dating Goodbye again - and I have almost finished it in 2 nights!

THAT MOST LIKELY WILL INCLUDE A "SPECIAL SOMEONE"!<br /> I also worry about what I am supposed to "do" with my future... I mean, my family and people I've know all say I'm so "talented" and I have so many things I could do with my life - that just to waste it on going to beauty school and becoming a hairdresser and (hopefully, sooner or later) getting married is dumb. My parents have reconciled my decision as being "wise" after all... but sometimes I just have tended to worry that I might not be doing what God wants... though it DOES seem to be the direction he has been leading me - so far.<br /> I say all of this to say that, on Sunday I just felt a real... I guess you could call it a "breakthrough" - I just surrendered EVERYTHING to God and I felt a real peace about my future. Someday I'll probably look back at all that God has done and laugh at how pittiful I was, but how great God came through inspite of me... the other day I was looking through some of my old "diarys" (I have had one since I was like 9 or 10) and I just had to laugh at how worried I got over things that "might happen" or "might not happen" - and turned out just how God knew they would several months or years down the road.<br /><br /> So, yes, I tend to worry about the things I want to know, but that God is keeping hidden for now, so that when he unveils them, they will be so much better than they could have been if I had been able to find out years before what was going to happen. God is SOOOOOO awesome!<br /><br />Thank you, Lord for reminding me to surrender to you. Thank you for also reminding me to give hopes to you and to make you; My creator, my savior, my lover, my friend - the object of my affections.
