Entry for August 16, 2006

This surrendering is hard. God has really brought me to this place of having to surrender certain areas of my life to him. And not just a superficial surrendering. A complete surrendering, with no expectations from Him in return.

So, it basically has meant giving up some of my dreams, my desires, to obey Him. And it hasn't been easy. My continued prayer has been, "Okay, God, here I go taking this from you yet again. If I'm supposed to surrender this to you, you're gonna have to help me to do it. So here it is, AGAIN! Please help me to not take it back."

Slowly, I am starting to see his blessings given in response to my obedience. Blessings in unexpected forms and at unexpected times.

The biggest is the sense of peace He has instilled me with. A peace that could only come from Him.
