Freedom. Something that I now know. How often do we make decisions that we know are wrong but yet somehow still make that decision. We let our feelings decide for us. I often have let my feelings dictate my actions, rather than letting God be the sovereign ruler that he is. I'm currently doing a bible study titled Lies Women Believe. One of the lies that the book mentions is that our feelings/emotions are an accurate judge of the situation at hand. But that is so false. If we resort to letting our feelings control us, then we are completely abandoning the Truth of God's word and his promises. Christ made the ultimate sacrifice for us. All he asks is that we sacrifice our feelings for what we know is true. God is great and faithful. I'm learning to let that truth control my life. He is always here for me and He is all I need. The joy and peace that I have encountered by making decisions through God's stength is something that I would never trade for anything. I love how he continues to gently break me of my wicked ways and reveal himself to me through truth. God is so good!

A new season has arrived for me. I'm content with where I am, but I'm also excitied about what the Lord has in store for me next. I'm learning to lean on Christ and trust him with everything. It's a constant battle with the enemy, but I know that the same power that conquered the grave lives in me and I'm thankful for that. "All of my life, in every season, He is still God and I have a reason to worship."

"Your eternal word, O Lord, stands firm in the heaven. Your faithfulness extends to every generation, as enduring as the earth you created. Your regulations remain true to this day, for everything serves your plans. I know that your regulations are fair; you discipline me because I need it. Now let your unfailing love comfort me, just as you promised me, your servant."

-Psalm 119: 89-91, 75-76
