God will sometimes stretch you beyond your natural comfort zone, often requiring you to do things you don't want to do, and give away the things you cherish most. It is not His intent to deprive you, but to get you beyond having dependence on anything other than Him. If God requires something that seems sacrificial, I encourage you not to allow your mind to reason away this wonderful opportunity to know Him better. Trust me, there is nothing you can give that is greater than what God will give you in return. -freeda bowers Proverbs 3:5-6 Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight ❤️
