wow! I feel so dumb and ignorant sometimes. haha. after a crazy day of letting some sadness and anger out, I came home. I started watching "Facing the Giants" with my dad and tha part where the coach blinfolds one of his football players caught my attention. The coach was trying to tell the team they were going to beat one of the hardest teams in the region. Brock doesn't believe they can beat the team they are going to play against so the coach has him and another teammate get up to do the Death Crawl..before he sends the boys on their mission, the coach blindfolds Brock. Brock asks the coach why he blindfolds him and he said because he doesn't want him to give up when he knows how much further he can go. he asks him to give him his very best and Brock agrees to.. when Brock cannot see anything, all he can hear is the coach's voice right there telling him he can do it.. just ten more steps..just two more.. then before Brock knew it, he made it even further than he had planned to in the beginning.. God spoke to me in that very moment.. God spoke to my heart and said that in life I am going to feel defeated, let down, and that I cannot get past what's blocking me and I let things hinder my heart and my life. I become so upset about what I cannot control and I want to give up. there's been so many times I cannot see what is going on or the light in the darkness I am walking in, but God says to trust him. he blinfolded me so that I do not give up. He knows what is best and knows that if he shows me what kind of obstacles I am about to face or will continue to, then I will give up before I make it to the exact place he needs me at.. Although it hurts and I cannot see when it will all be over or what else I have to overcome, God does. he is the light, he is my way. He has asked me to not use my eyes or worry about what's to come, what I am facing, but to just GO!! just listen to his voice that is guiding me along the way.. I cannot see anything, all I can do is hear him pushing me. he is leading me to the exact place I need to go!
