Letting Go and Letting God

This past year has been such a challenging year, but also so so so rewarding. I got asked today if I had any regrets doing this internship, and to be honest - despite the difficult times and challenging moments - I wouldn't change anything. I feel I've grown so much, and I'm also not going to regret studying the Bible more in depth.

Lately, I've been beginning to work through what it's like to identify FULLY as a Daughter of God, trusting God more, and what that looks like. It can be quite easy while living at home (and after leaving home) to continue living under your parents faith. What I mean is, it can be easier to live under what their convictions are and what they believe. At some point, you have to make your faith your own. This whole year has been a massive faith journey for me - one that for sure isn't over! 

There are a lot of things that can we can like having control over - finances, jobs, friends, relationships; mainly just life in general. I for one, am guilty of liking having control over my own life. I like knowing what's up next and am always looking at the next big thing. But I have to remember that I am in no way in control. GOD IS!! So, how do you let go of something that you think you have control over? I have had many positive influences in my life that have helped me through letting go of the things I wish I had control over, and letting God take complete authority over my life. It's not easy, and it's a long process, but trust me, I feel a lot free-er (if that's even a word!). I know I have no control over what happens, but I have a God who does! 

Anyways I should probably get back to studying...Just thought I'd share a few thoughts about what's going on in my head :)

Enjoy the upcoming weekend.
