I have been going through a season of self discovery. I think the reason for this season is that I have been standing up for myself. No longer can I count on others to define me. I must have my own relationship with God, one that is unconditional. No matter who falls around me I must stand for me and for my God. I believe that God has ordained this time of lonesomeness. I cannot rely on others to hold me up. Through this period I have also discovered some of the things that matter to me in my relationships with others. One of the most important things is trust.

Trust is something that you don't really notice or think about until it's gone. When I was younger I was given the analogy of a bucket and drips of water. The water is trust, it slowly fills up the bucket. When trust is broken it's the same as dumping out that bucket, to refill it it takes the slow drip of the water.

I started writing this a few months ago and never finished it, I'm here to finish it. The most valuable thing in you're relationship in God (from my view point, correct me if I'm wrong) is trust. Trust is a "all encompassing" word, when I say trusting God I mean Knowing that you're in God's hands and everything that happens it is all in his will and no matter what happens he will be there for, with, in you.

No matter if you want it or not, God will be there so you might as well believe and know and save your poor heart the worry. In all things God is there. In that you can trust God. You can trust that his will will happen, be it with or with out you. You might as well just give up and trust Haha.
