Dependency

Have you ever thought your life was ruined because of something horrible that happened?
I regret to say that I have. Unfortunately, it happens often. Something I wanted to happen didn't happen, or something I didn't want to happen happened. I let it eat at me until I'm snappy and rude to any one who talks to me. I become sullen and don't want to do anything.
I was thinking about this yesterday, after one of these episodes happened.
Why am I so dependent on these thing? On these people? On these events? Dependency is something I'm trying hard to fight. I want to be an independent girl who can fend for herself. *buzz* Wrong!
There's someone we need to be dependent on. We need to lean on Him for everything. We need to let ourselves go ahead and fall and trust that He's going to catch us. Guess who! God!!
Trust. Oh man... Trust. I don't even like the word. It's so hard to let everything go. If you hold onto a butterfly, its wings will be smushed (no, that's not a word) and it won't be able to fly, then it will eventually die. You don't want to hold on to the thing your holding onto until it dies. Depend on God to take care of you, your needs, your friends, and your family. Sometimes bad things happen. Bad things teach you to be more dependent on God, and other things. A bad thing happened to make me think of this post!
So... let go. Don't worry. Let God take care of you. He has a plan, and he will NOT forget you.

Love, Sarah @)~

Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? And not one of them is forgotten before God. Why, even the hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not; you are of more value than many sparrows. ~ Luke 12:6-7
