obedience

He is teaching me that i have to fight to be still.
i have to fight to find rest in Him.

too many times we fight to do more.
we fight to move forward.
we fight to do religion.

striving isn't bad.
striving toward the wrong thing is bad.
too many times, we strive to strive more.

God is showing me that i must strive to find rest.
i must strive to be still.
or i'll keep getting swayed and pushed around.

i gotta trust in Him.
i gotta trust that the call will work itself out.
i gotta trust He is disciplining me in love.
i gotta trust that in Him there are no mistakes, but in Him, there is discipline.

and He disciplines in love.

it hurts, and it sucks...
but i'm going to fight.
and i'm going to rest.
