Heartache.

The Lord is present.
He is here, always.
Hebrews 13:8 - "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever."
He is not going to let me fall.

The Lord has recently been putting me through some extreme heartache. I won't lie and tell you it is easy. It is one of the most difficult things in the world, to learn the art of giving things up to God. Letting Him control every aspect of your life. But being a follower of Christ does not guarantee an easy path. Our path is narrow. Our path is rocky. Our path is dangerous. Our path is a risk. But there is light. Our path leads to peace. Our path leads to hope. Our path leads to unconditional love, the purest, most beautiful love one could ever experience.

Through all of this, I can see God's greater purpose, although I am terribly blinded at times. Trails are to refine us, and make us new creations. 1 Peter 1:7 says this: "These (trials) have come so that your faith -- of greater worth than gold, which perishes even though refined by fire -- may be proved genuine and may result in praise, glory, and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed."

Beautiful things will be coming out of this. God has proven himself to me in many ways in which I cannot describe (not like He needs to...He is everywhere). I 100% put my control (or lack thereof) into your hands, Father. You make all things new. You are making me new. Show me how to love like you have loved a wretched thing like me. You make me new.


Give me child like faith. I want to know you more. 

Much Love,
Molly
