It is no secret that I am a control freak and, therefore, a resistor of changes that are out of my control. My life seems to be filled with those changes right now. Students that I've invested my heart in are graduating and moving on. I am packing up my classroom for the 4th time in 5 years, although the new room will be GLORIOUS. Christopher is finishing first grade and the time when he needs his mom is flying past me. Everywhere I look, I see change looming and it puts me on edge.
This morning, God asked me simple questions. "Will you trust Me?" Yes, Lord. I choose to trust You. "Will you believe that I have plans for good and not for calamity to give you a future and a hope?" (Jeremiah 29:11) Yes, Lord I choose to believe. "Do you know in your heart that I can and I will turn ALL THINGS for good for those who love Me?" (Romans 8:28) Yes, Lord. I know in my heart. "Will you let go of the things that are causing worry and weighing on your heart?" Yes, Lord. I choose to let go...again and again.
