worry is my middle name

apparently, there's like a saying- "If you ever want to hear God laugh, tell Him your plans."
i'm not sure if who said it was a believer or non-believer, but if there's any sort of merit to that quote i'm pretty sure God's laughed at me once, oh maybe more. i was reminded again how God has my future laid out for me and there's really no point trying to fight it. being stubborn and trying to get my way only ends up hurting myself, and it's like taking the long and annoying detour when you could've just gone the obvious, quicker way.

i'm not a huge fan of this song, but lately it's been encouraging me to keep telling myself that God is God of my past, present, and future..and not me. definitely not me.

You hold the future in your hands
You know my dreams and you have a plan
And as you light my way, I'll follow you

My eyes on all of the above
My soul secure in all you've done
My minds made up
And you are the only one for me

Jesus, savior, in my life you are everything
My future decided, I will praise your name
And I know that I am, I am yours
Yeah, I know that I am, I am yours

You hold the earth in your command
You are the rock on which I stand
And as I live each day, I'll follow you

My eyes on all of the above
My soul secure in all you've done
My minds made up
And you are the only one for me

Aren't afraid, aren't ashamed Lord we know who we are
We are your people and we won't be silent
Unified hear us cry at the top of our lungs
You our God and we will not be shaken

Jesus, savior, in my life you are everything
My future decided, I will praise your name
And I know that I am, I am yours
Yeah, I know that I am, I am yours
