The Art of Chaos

in the chaos, in confusion I know You’re sovereign still…

Can I please just say outloud that I hate the way I love my life right now? Sleeplessness, meetings, events,  schoolwork, car repairs, financial stress and tough relationships all seem like indicators that life is getting too hard and too busy and too out of control. But for me, all of these things speak volumes of how life is only getting better. 

My intent is not to be the busiest person in the world, or even the most tired (as much as it may look like that). It is to be the most sustained. Sustained by Christ, by His word. To not trust in my own plans, abilities or strategies.

Thank God that in the chaos and confusion he’s still God. If he wasn’t, I would not be alive.

Thank you God for taking the reigns of my heart and making it submissive and obedient to you. Continue to knock down walls, take me back and be my Savior. You are my Ultimate Desire–my most needed Salvation.
