'Don't be your own God.'
The words of one of my greatest inspirations, Chris Z.
I think sometimes in life it becomes easy to try and write our own story. Only, God's already written our story.
We can't be our own God.
Ultimately, Our mindset determines our reality. And, in order to trust our reality God has created for us...
We have to believe we belong in the story.
Believe we are where we are for a reason.
Believe we've been through what we've been through for a reason.
Believe God is the author of our story.
I think it's so easy to place our identity in worldly things or what we think it is, rather than what God says it is.
Sometimes we try to write our story around what we think our identity is.
Only...
Our identity is found in Christ.
AND
Christ is writing our story.
AND
Our story isn't over.
We were made for more and when things don't go the way we thought they would it doesn't mean our story is over. It's just adding another chapter.
Another chapter of growth, lessons, and trust.
Trust in what's to come.
Trust in our author, Christ.
And trust in who God says we are.
