You know when you think you’re running out of body wash, so you turn it over and there’s actually a lot more in the bottle than you realized?
Maybe it’s the same with us. Maybe we need to flip our perspective + sit for a bit to realize how full our lives actually are.
I felt so much peace tonight. Playing in the water, sitting + watching the waves. It was like I was a kid again, and I couldn’t stop thanking God for my life.
My life exactly the way it is right now.
I spend so much time worrying and overthinking, trying to figure things out, what I should do, when maybe…all I need to do is flip over my bottle of life + be reminded of how much I ALREADY have.
How much God has already provided tor me.
How much I’m growing.
And how my life right now is literally what I’ve been praying for for years.
And the best part? I don’t have anything figured out.
There’s plenty of things in life right now that I don’t know how to handle or what I should do with. But the point of life isn’t to have it all figured out!
My time at the beach tonight taught me:
1. Let God sort it all out. Let God flip you over if need be so you can realize how much you already have. Let Him change your perspective. Let Him be in control of your life! Have you ever played in the waves? It makes you realize real quick you’re not in control. (As shown at the end of this video ) 2. I need to sit and be still. And that being still before God doesn’t mean you’re going to magically have things figured out or that you’ll hear the answers to the questions you’ve been asking. You might just hear God say, “Trust me, I’ve got this. I know you don’t know what to do or what is coming, but I’ve got you. I love you. Now just sit your butt down and enjoy this. Because this…this is it. This is the good stuff of life. This is when you get a glimpse of how full your life really is…and it doesn’t get much better than this.”
