Sometimes your heart is saying yes, but you know God is saying no.
It’s like swimming against a strong current.
You paddle your hardest, and the waves keep pushing against you.
Every effort, every stroke is in vain.
You know you are no match to the power of nature; the power of God.
But never the less, you try.
You try your hardest to win over the incessant fight against you.
But it is useless.
And then in a flash, you're taken.
It happens one of two ways:
Either you struggle to gain your grip again, knowing full well that you will lose, so you end up hurt and exhausted, but eventually giving in.
Or you let yourself go. You find perfect harmony with the current of the almighty hand. You trust the water to take you to a place where you are at peace.
Only then will you find relief.
The relief that you no longer have to fight.
There is no longer even a force to fight against.
You are at peace.
You are at the place where you are meant to be and it all makes sense now.
God has a plan.
All we ever do is try to fight it.
We try to figure it out on our own.
We think we know what we're doing.
We think we know what’s best for us.
We think we know what we want.
We are wrong.
Dead wrong.
We will always be disappointed if we don’t just let the current of the Lord take us to the place where our deepest desires are in harmony with the desires that God has for us.
Only then will we truly know what pure happiness means.
And not even just that; we will know the true joy we can have if we take His hand and let Him lead.
So the point of all this?
We, especially me, need to follow the will of God.
We need to stop trying to find what we think God wants us to find.
We need to wait on the Lord and HE will give us the deepest desires of our hearts.
Because God is a god of love, and a god of peace.
He is God, and His will is perfect.
And who doesn’t want some perfection?
Because I do.
So now, I will wait on the Lord.
Because I want everything He wants for me, and I want NOTHING less.
I am His princess.
And, in His timing, He will give me my prince.
