sovereignty.

as long as i'm seeking the lord and being obedient to him, my life will be just how he wants it to be, if he wants it to be different, he will do something to change it. all i am responsible for is seeking the lord and actively following after him; the outcomes are all in his hands. gotta love the sovereignty of god.

trust and obey. that's my role. god's the one who's responsible for results.

disclaimer: this does not mean i can resign myself to some sort of fatalism and sit back and watch life pass by. the key word is "actively" following and seeking the lord. the realization of this truth does not make life any easier in a practical sense (it's true whether i recognize it or not), but it does put my little, finite mind at ease knowing the lord is faithful and he has a plan and a good plan at that.

god. he's so good.
