Abraham was willing to sacrafice his own son because God asked him to. Think about the person you love the most in this world and imagine God asking you to kill that person. Could you do it? I don't think I could.
How much control do you really exert over your life?
I've been thinking a lot lately about what God wants for me and more so, if I want those things too. It's hard for me to decipher my wishes vs. God's. I had to spend hours last semester creating my four year plan -- it almost seems futile. I've always hated planning out things more than a year in advance because circumstances change so quickly. I don't want to make promises or plans that I can't keep. Lately, I've been abiding by a day by day philosophy more than anything. Even though I don't know what my life will look like even one month from now, I'm excited. For the first time ever, I'm excited for the unknown. This is me letting go.
