Note to self

I was browsing through my planner and then found notes when I was still reading the Sun Stand Still book...this one was after I read Chapter8(Surcharge of Sacrifice), it was about the obedience of Joshua and disobedience of Moses..the unbelieving generation of Moses and the believing generation of Joshua...got teary-eyed when I read what I wrote at the last part..

"Steph, you have to learn to surrender. And take courage when He's put a vision in your life. Don't overthink. Don't doubt. Don't second guess. Because if it's God's vision, surely it will be accomplished. in His perfect time and through His ways, not your own doing. Just believe and have faith. He's the only one you are so sure of. He is the only one faithful and powerful to fulfill everything according to His plan. You need to obey. Quickly. And trust Him. Fully. With all your heart. Mind. Soul. You have to learn to let go of your own selfish desires. Let go of the things that hinders you from glorifying God. It may be your habits, material things, or even your dreams. You have to learn to let go and let God. Leave the cleaning/renewing to Him. But you have to be willing for God to change you. To renew you. Change your heart. Let Him. It will sometimes hurt, but if it's His way of teaching you about Him and how to be like Jesus Christ, then let it be. It will hurt but  be assured that greater things are yet to come. He is preparing you for greater things. You need to focus. FOCUS. Fix your eyes on JESUS. Be passionate in seeking Christ. Be passionate in everything..for Christ."
