Acceptance of Now

31 May

For the longest time I struggled against wherever I found myself. I was always looking to improve the situations, mindsets and outlooks of my life. It caused me to feel permanently ‘driven’ - and I was tired.

These days, I’m learning to accept where I currently am and accept myself as I currently am. God promises that He has a beautifully divine plan for my life an that each day was written in His book, before I was even formed. So, if I truly believe what He says, then He knows where I am today. He knows what I’m like, today. He knows what’s going on… today.

Honestly, all I need to do is desire His will, hold on to His hand and rely on Him to lead me along my path!

Whenever I can feel myself getting frustrated or feeling driven, I ask the Holy Spirit to nudge me and help me to get off the treadmill. He helps me to refocus my eyes on Jesus and stop trying to do things in my own strength and according to my own understanding.

So, take a deep breath, (OK, maybe a couple), and re-align yourself with God and walk in the ‘peace that surpasses all understanding’ and know that your steps are ordered and everything is working out just as it should.
