Being obedient to God

Have you ever just had one of those days to where everything gets on your nerves? Today, I am finding myself in the place of feeling overwhelmed. Right now, at this very moment, it all feels stressful. The thing is that I have nothing to be stressed about right now. Therefore, I don’t know why I feel as if I am ready to come unglued. 

I tried doing laundry and cleaning my house, but it made me feel worse. So I sat down and turned on my writing music and just opened my laptop. Sometimes writing helps. I need to figure out why I feel this way. 

The things that are bothering are not my problem. They are just adding to my irritation. In my heart, I know what my problem is. I just don’t want to admit it to myself nor deal with it. Being obedient to the calling of God is not always easy. Sometimes He puts things on our heart that we don’t want to do. But if we want to grow, worship Him, and lead others to our Lord, then we have to be willing to do whatever that He tells us to do. Otherwise, we can’t walk with the Lord. 

So with tears running down my face, I am willing to do what it is that He wants me to do. For every possible problem that I give God, He reminds me that He already has the solution. He already knows how it will work out. It is not my job to fix everything. It is my job to be obedient to God. 

Sometimes we have to be willing to let go of what we have right now so that God can give us something different. What we see as problems, might really be God aligning it all to answer our prayers.
