I feel like my emotions are on a constant roller coaster. The ups and downs that I experience send me for loops that continue to open my eyes to my need for the Lord. How He is my only true constant no matter how I am feeling or what I am going through.
As I prepare for this next grand adventure called the world race, I feel like I am continuing to come back to the truth that He is the only one I can lean on. I feel like this is all I blog about. The fact that I do indeed need Him in so many more ways than I ever thought. Yes I know that I need to rely on Him in everything but coming to the heart of that and actually doing that is different than just the idea of it.
As I sat in Panera having my quiet time this morning. I was in that moment of battling my self. To rely on the Lord or be overcome by my worry and doubt. And that is when the Lord blessed me with Bon Iver. I was listening to one of my playlists so the chances of Bon Iver playing in my ears were pretty good. Nevertheless when I heard his melodious voice in my ear I felt blessed, loved. Not because of the lyrics because he is a secular artist but because the Lord knows me. And knows how to soothe my aching soul. He knows that I like music and appreciate those he has created with talent. And he knows that melodious tones like what Bon Iver can bust out are amazing. As I sat mesmerized by the effects of hearing “Skinny Love” by Bon Iver, I again realized that all I need to do is surrender. To not be anxious about anything but give it all to Him the author and perfector of my faith.
So as the Lord blessed me today with Bon Iver, what has He used in your life recently to bless you and to love you?
