Over the last couple of years, I have noticed a decline in my commitment to my faith. Not because I no longer believe the words and ideas that were taught to me when I was younger. No, simply because I have made other things more of a priority in my life. High school, college, and thoughts of how to plan for the future have grown to become more important to me than my relationship with Christ. Don't get me wrong, my education and future are very important! But when did my commitment to trust in God's plan for my life fall away and my foolish thoughts that I could control the world and my future become my thought process?
That is what accepting Christ into your heart is all about, isn't it? The trust that maybe He has a plan that is far greater than anything you can control, create, or even imagine. It means having a friendship beyond compare. Having someone always on your side, and not just anyone, but the Lord Christ. And if that isn't awesome, then I don't know what is!
"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." ~ Jeremiah 29:11
