Isn't it just mind boggling to think about how BIG our God is, yet he chooses to love and care for each one of his children individually and at such a personal level? It honestly blows my mind sometimes.
It's hard for me to put myself in the shoes of someone who doesn't know the Lord. Why get up in the morning? What is there to look forward to? There is so much unknown when a life isn't surrendered and fully entrusted to Christ.
But how blessed are we to be chosen and loved by the Creator of existence?!?!?! We can rest at peace with the fact that we get up in the morning to joyfully serve, glorify, and honor the Lord through our relationships, friendships, and interactions with people. We have REASON to live. We have eternal life with Christ to look forward to. We don't have to sit and twiddle our thumbs waiting for the next big thing to come along which will lead us to the next unfulfilling and unsatisfactory thing. We can just wait upon the Lord knowing that He is bigger than this life, and that His will is going to ultimately glorify Him more.
I think I would literally drive myself crazy with the insecurity of "I don't know how my life is going to turn out down the road- what if i don't ever get a job? what if i don't ever find someone to marry? what if i don't have anywhere to live?" But as followers of Christ, if we continue to surrender our lives and devote ourselves to Christ, we know that He will take care of us, and meet our needs, and provide for us. What a blessing. God is ENOUGH, and He's won my heart.
