Hey Dolls,
So I just have to put this out there...I haven't given up and really and truly am looking for an effective and consistent way to incorporate "The Word" portion of my blog.
Its important to me to share with you guys the word, but I want to make sure "I am not scratching where you guys are not itching"..in other words I want to make sure I am feeding information that is vital to my readers...
its difficult I must say, because I don't know who my readers are and the problems that they are facing
but I wont weigh you guys down with my conflicts..I promise I will figure this out!
After reading a blog post by a really beautiful and amazing blogger..who really just seem troubled, conflicted, and discontented with her life I felt motivated to share this with you guys...
A couple days ago I was speaking to a friend and he asked me" you're a college grad, is that much of a drag?" And my response was "it was at the beginning, but then somewhere down the line I came to the realization that Gods grace is sufficient enough...and whatever he provides me with I know its enough". (as I wrote these words I knew this wasn't my own thought..but words deposited in my by the Holy Spirit).
I have heard this over and over and over..but i didn't really internalize what that meant for me.
I always thought that my success had to look like other peoples success. That I had to have a great job out of college, graduate with a certain GPA, get x,y,z amount of degrees, and buy x,y,z amount of clothes.
When God provided I asked Him for more, when He opened one door, I wanted Him to open a different door.
I realize now that all that I would get and buy and do and ask for..still wasn't enough, still wasn't giving me the contentment that I was looking for in life.
But I had to learn to become humble and grateful with what I have. I had to come to the realization that all I have I am fortunate to have and its through God's provision why I have the things that I have.
I had to trust that all that He gave me was enough.
And I am no saying I am in complete bliss because of my humility and gratitude, but I can say that life is much easier when you are walking with God, being obedient to his will and commands. Because God "will not give us more than we can bear" and He always work for the good of His people.
LOve always,
Sash.
