One of the hardest things you’ll ever do is let go of what you thought God should do in order to let Him do what He actually has planned.

God, I’ve learned, often speaks through circumstance.

Our heart, very often, wants what it wants. Our personal desires rise with a devilish intent. More times than not, we are the hindrance.

On the other side of that struggle is quite possibly everything you’ve ever prayed for.

However, it does hinge on your obedience.

At some point, when the fruit is no longer and the brook has dried up, you must let it go and empty your hands.

What He will fill them with now is more glorious than you could ever imagine. (Eph. 3:20)
