Less is MORE!

So...after FCA's message about pride and talking to a friend for quite some time tonight, I've realized that I've tried to take the driver's seat in my life lately. I haven't trusted God to safely guide me and I've tried to take it all on myself. This feat is impossible...for those of you who haven't already figured this out. So right now, I'm pulling over, and like Carrie Underwood says, "Jesus, take the wheel." Cuz his hands are so much more capable than mine. OUR GOD IS SO AMAZING. One more thing that God has really laid on my heart, when I become content with where I am right now in this life, if I can sit back and thank God for the blessings He is giving me right now, that is when I am truly going to be happy. Sometimes it's difficult for me to praise God in my monotony, especially on a Monday, but I know that he is constantly blessing me and this brings the biggest smile to my heart. Like tonight, when I saw this verse on a poster tonight before FCA, "He must become GREATER; I must become LESS." It just blessed me and challenged me. So this week I'm going to make a conscious effort to lay down my pride and to let Jesus take the wheel even with the small stuff. With that, I'm out in full force like the AU security guards at 7:30 am. (Only ppl who park in yellow spots overnight on campus would understand this) Much love!
