Tennis. I never wanted my father to teach me or my brother, let alone a tennis instructor that my parents paid for. I wanted to do everything on my own.
School. I always strived to be the best that I could. I never accepted the fact that sometimes I needed help. Whether it was seeing my teacher after school or signing up for an tutor, I never wanted to feel less than those around me.
But I am less. And not in the way that other may imagine.
I am less than God although sometimes I like to feel like I am the only one in control of my life. I always want to do everything on my own, I want to feel all powerful and mighty when the reality of it all is that I am not. I need to realize, that that's God's job. He is all powerful and mighty and I am weak. If I can't go through it all, God will meet me halfway and help me through my struggles. A tiny bit of faith, goes such a long way.
There are time where I admire my friends and my church family so much for the faith that they have, but everyone's faith is so unique. Every individual on this planet has such a unique relationship with our God, that every faith, every story, and every relationship is different, but it's okay because it is certainly one relationship with one God. All in all, I guess what I'm trying to say is that a whole sea of faith isn't necessary to begin a relationship with God of for that matter continue one. There are countless times where I feel completely discouraged but the love of God covers that and sees beyond our wounds and comes into our lives to heal us, if we just ask. Just ask. Ask for His love, His spirit and He will give us that.
Love and Blessings,
