Surrendering in Order to Grow

Well, this morning has been “unusual”… 🙃

…out of my “norm”…

You see, I was “kicked out” of my usual spot at the table this morning by my husband, who had an early morning zoom call. 😊

And now I’m currently sitting outside, on the porch of my unfinished “study (to-be)” —with my cat sitting on my lap…and of course he’s currently sitting where I would write on the pages of my journal…

It’s okay though… because what the Lord is teaching me and showing me this morning…

is now in the process of “sinking in”… 🌱💖

So Father…

I surrender.

I surrender… and I’m here…here I am…

…coming before You…right here where I am.

In this place, in this different kind of “season”….

I’m breaking out of my usual—what I’m “used to”…

and I surrender… so that I can see, so that I can hear

what YOU have on Your heart for me here…

…what YOU desire to speak to my heart

what YOU desire to teach me

“right here“…

However it might seem, however it might feel

I surrender my ways…

so that I can learn and perceive

from You

…what You want me to grasp

what You want me to know…

how YOU want me to grow

I surrender to this part of Your process…

…”right here” where I am, in this place.

And I’ll tune into You.

Thank You, Father. 💝
