"Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer."
—Romans 12:12
I am making a conscious effort to do this. I have prayed more in these last 3 months than I have in the last 3 years! In doing this, the blessings in my life have been more apparent now than ever. What a blessing this process has been for me, my relationship with Sean, and my relationship with the Lord. Every day, I am still learning new things and I know He is not done teaching me yet. I am constantly reminding myself that I am not in control and the events of my life will happen in God's time, not mine. I had many plans for my life, and I can say that the majority of those plans didn't pan out, but looking back at the plans that I once had, I am so grateful that they didn't pan out! If everything in my life happened according to MY timeline, my life would probably be a mess! How blessed I am to have realized that I AM NOT in control! I am more than happy to hand the reigns over to the one who knows what the plan is for me, becuase I sure don't have a clue! And I am content!
