Let our scars fall in love.

We’re all seeking that special person who is right for us. But if you’ve been through enough relationships, you begin to suspect there’s no right person, just different flavors of wrong. Why is this? Because you yourself are wrong in some way, and you seek out partners who are wrong in some complementary way.

But it takes a lot of living to grow fully into your own wrongness. And it isn’t until you finally run up against your deepest demons, your unsolvable problems—the ones that make you truly who you are—that we’re ready to find a lifelong mate. Only then do you finally know what you’re looking for. You’re looking for the wrong person.

But not just any wrong person: the right wrong person—someone you lovingly gaze upon and think, “This is the problem I want to have.”

I will find that special person who is wrong for me in just the right way.

Let our scars fall in love.

Trust God

Things may happen that you just don't understand. Trust that He is with you, and His plan is far greater than anything you can imagine.

Trust God and be brave, even if you don’t feel self-assured. It is so hard to let things go and not try to control everything. Place your worries, plans, and fears at the feet of Jesus. He's got you.

God knows your heart. If all you can manage is to be quiet and still before the Lord, it's ok. Even when words fail, He hears.

Be still and know He is God. You may be running on empty or running your race well but either way, you can be still in Him.

Maybe you need to take a break and refill. It's okay to have moments when you feel like you've had enough. Rest & let God refresh you.
