stop overthinking, start living.

where do i begin? the past month has been a whirlwind it feels like. grown up life is tough to get used to. but, sometimes i think i need to stop and smell the roses. i am so caught up in worrying about SO MANY things that i have NO control over......STILL. when am i going to lay it down and completely surrender that to the Lord? i'm definitely realizing that this is going to be a hugeeee process for me. & if anyone knows me, i highly dislike processes. but, when processes are over, i really enjoy what i learned from it. i'm driving myself crazy trying to sit here and figure out what is going to happen next that i'm not just living. why be worried about the next think in life..our life is but a vapor & the Lord has it all figured out. there is NO reason why i should need to have it all figured out!

i really need to stop overthinking & start living. there are so many things i want to enjoy about this process that the Lord has put me in. but, i always am ready for the next step & i never really just take in the moment. i always think of how i could make this better or the negative about it rather than the positive.

so, whatever you are thankful for right now, yes, you who is reading this, take it in. in any situation, i want to figure out what i love about that exact moment & what i am thankful for right then. & right now, i am thankful for the sound of crickets outside.

"Since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us be thankful, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe, for our 'God is a consuming fire.'" Hebrews 12:28-29

in His Love--
