Surrender

I've been thinking about surrender today. I have lots of idea's of what I want my life to look like, and idea's of the kind of person I want to be. I've come to realize that while some of my idea's might be brilliant, they are not close to reality! I mean, I really don't think that I will be moving to Italy anytime soon (where I'll live off the money I make from my books, the next 'Harry Potter' series)...

I believe that I should dream big dreams. I believe that God dreams big dreams for me, too. (I also believe in magic.) I just have to remember that I do not see the big picture; God does! He knows what my future COULD hold, if only I will surrender my will and follow His! It's exciting really, because maybe living in Italy is in my future. Or maybe it's somewhere better, like... well, I can't think of anyplace better than Italy right now, but perhaps God has a good place in mind?

Surrender.

Submit.

Yield.

Lay down your arms.
