My Everything

If you try to hang on to your life, you will lose it. But if you give up your life for my sake, you will save it.
Matthew 16:25

"Saviour of my soul, I worship You as God alone. Greater love has made a way to You.Open my eyes
I want to see Your glory Your glory Lord. I open my heart. I want to be closer closer to You. Here I am again. I find my strength in drawing near. You have heard the desperate cry in me" Open My Eyes Hillsong

Giving up things, so I can get my focus on God who means more to me than anything. It is a battle of letting go. Each time I start to miss something I have to let it go. I know that if they are to come back in my life they will, but for now I must focus on God's promise which is that he has something much better in store. So I must wait. I must let go completely, daily I must surrender all of me into the hands of God and let him have his way in me. Let him take control. Let him fill me to the top.

I am broken and I am weak. I constantly compare myself to others. I am not smart enough, not beautiful enough, not eloquent enough. I'm not fast enough. I don't believe I am strong enough. I have done this instead of that. I have messed up done well for a while and messed up again. I have held so many things in my heart for so long. I don't have this or that, but there is one thing that I do have. I have God. He gives me all the things I need to be me. When I have lost it all, he is sufficient for me. He will fill my mind with the truth. He tells me that I am who I am and I have my own purpose. He tells me that he will get me to the places I have not ventured to in his timing. He loves me for who I was, who I am, and who I will be. That's all that matters, so when I find myself wanting again what I had I will focus on seeking him, because in him I can find all things I need to survive. 

Joshua 1:9
...Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.
