Feeling out of control

Published on 6 December 2024 at 07:29

I have been feeling out of control.

There are many puzzle pieces that I see all suited to serve a specific purpose and function in my life presently and in my future.

I just dont see how to form them into the puzzle.

It is as though I am looking at a 1000 peices of a puzzle for a 3,000 peice puzzle.

I know God will provide the additional peices when I need them.

For now, my focus is on the 1000 pieces.

How will I even find the time to put all of the pieces together?

How will they all fit together in only 24 hours of the day?

Today, more than ever, I desperately need the help of the Holy Spirit to guide me in every step, every action that I take. 

I do not want to be swept up in things not of God.

I've learned to do the morally right, good, God, for me, right now thing.

This is the space I want to flow in with God.

Removed from all distractions, worries or cares of this world. Just focused on God and what He has for me.

But how can I in the midst of this tug of war present in my very being- the enemy presenting distractions in many forms while the Lord is leading me in the path to destiny.

Today, I feel like the red bouncy ball is flying every which way trying to grab my attention. 

Holy spirit:

Do you understand Jennifer? All of this is by design to get you to see how important it is to remain in me. Let go of control. Your problem is not with the activities or tasking but with control. You are approaching your life in this season from a worldly approach. You are trying to grab a handle on all that's going on and put it into a neat package that then you can put away. This is the way our mind works. You need to stop trying to put together the puzzle yourself. There are more pieces than you even are aware of. More than 3,000 but Infinite. You are a piece in the infinitude of Christ, of God Himself, so your pieces of infinite. Therefore, it is impossibility to put them all together. You MUST lean on me to show you how to put the puzzle together piece by piece. You do this in moments of time but at times you try to put pieces together yourself and you get overwhelmed. Know that I, Jennifer, I have a plan for your life. All you have to do is follow the steps. Let me take care of how it will all come together. You just seek and obey the steps. You are trying to imagine what cannot be imagined. Have I not been instructing you? I will continue to do so. My instructions lead to your destiny you were created for not what you have seen or experience or even desire but for purpose. You are a tool being forged for Gods purpose. You have no clue what that purpose entails so STOP TRYING TO CONTROL THE FORGING PROCESS. Trust God and let it happen. Relax. God will complete the good work He started in you. Trust Him to do so. Let go of control. It is all going to be ok. It will all work out in your favor. At this point Jennifer, what do you have to lose;) The outcome is not your responsibility, it belongs to God. How it all comes together falls on God. Your responsibility is to have faith by seeking and taking the step, letting go and trusting God.

 

Question of the day

Are you overwhelmed with all God desires you to do in this season?

It could be because you are trying to cram into a box neatly the infinite working within. It is an impossible, fruitless pursuit. Turn your concerns over to the Lord and allow Him to shape and forge you as He desires. Today, take a deep breath and rest in sovereignty and love. He has you, Trust Him.

Scripture

 

Jeremiah 29:11-14
 

11 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.

12 Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. 13 You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. 14 I will be found by you,” declares the Lord, “and will bring you back from captivity. I will gather you from all the nations and places where I have banished you,” declares the Lord, “and will bring you back to the place from which I carried you into exile.”
