Today I was taking my second born to school and I watched the sun rising over our section of Jacksonville, Florida.
The Christian radio was playing some song I can’t even remember now and tears filled my eyes. I thought to myself….”Why is it so hard to believe that He is real, alive and wants to love us?”
All the other philosophies just don’t make any sense when compared to an awesome creator, a loving Father, and someone who wants nothing more than to have a relationship with you. It’s not a religion. It’s a relationship….no special Sunday clothes, no “I have to be good enough”. Why can’t we let go and let Him have the chance to change us?? What is it about the human nature that wants to be in control of everything in life instead of trusting in a higher, loving Father?
I guess because I have let go and given my life to Him I know how sweet surrender can be. I know that today is all I have. Tomorrow has it’s own worries. Most of all I know that I know that I know He has my very best interests at heart. I don’t have to figure things out or worry about tomorrow. I can trust Him in the good and in the bad. I can cry out to him when I’m lonely and in pain. I can praise Him that my lot in life is just that….it’s mine. He never gives me more than I can bear even though there are days I feel that way. I can tell myself, “Remember Julie, He loves you.”
Who wouldn’t believe? Why wouldn’t someone choose that relationship above all others?
