You'll thump me on the forehead and remind me that God is faithful and worthy to be trusted and I am NOT worthy to be trusted. Then I'll do the same for you. Then we'll meet again the following week and do it all again because we're knuckle-heads who get too busy to remember how BIG God is!<BR/><BR/>How's that for a plan?<BR/><BR/>love ya,<BR/>DarnelleAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3027179631891898735.post-69473432146011101922008-07-25T22:21:00.000-05:002008-07-25T22:21:00.000-05:00Beautifully written, Amy!

Many times I question my decision to attend the school I attend, but I know I'm where I'm suppose to be. That's when God asks me to trust. Many times I fail though! Thanks for the reminder! I really enjoyed it!!<BR/><BR/>JenniferJenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09733495237671457140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3027179631891898735.post-27368985902158295102008-07-25T13:49:00.000-05:002008-07-25T13:49:00.000-05:00Hi, I have two sons and I have been trying so hard...Hi, I have two sons and I have been trying so hard and long to "Let go and Let God!"

We rode in a Sky Gondola - I think that is what it is called - and it struck me...we didn't look it over. We never looked up to see how it traveled. We just climbed into this glass car that was suspended on a cable and went for a ride. We gave it (and the workers running it) our trust and faith without even realizing this is what we had done. It was a great discussion.<BR/><BR/>Thanks again. I have often prayed about my miniscule faith. I am learning, slowly, to truly trust Him.<BR/><BR/>Blessings -<BR/>CamilleKeepItSimplehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00670928120877663555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3027179631891898735.post-84289096287136615112008-07-25T10:43:00.000-05:002008-07-25T10:43:00.000-05:00Yes, Amy, you are so right. The bottom line often...Yes, Amy, you are so right. The bottom line often for me is do I trust myself more than I trust God?<BR/><BR/>I am on the verge of sending my 18 year old daughter on a 14 hour flight with layover, alone.. She will meet our friends who are missionaries in Asia at the airport on the other end. My daughter feels it is God's call on her to go for 3 weeks and spend time ministering to the families at that location of mission. She's never been on a airplane. And I have to put her on it to go it alone.<BR/><BR/>So, who do I trust? People tell me they can't believe I am letting her go. How can I stop her? Am I supposed to tell her she cannot follow God where He is asking her to go because I am afraid?<BR/><BR/>Ultimately my daughter belongs to Him. She is safe in His arms. He will travel with her. Do I trust HIM?<BR/><BR/>I hear ya...I'm there with ya.<BR/><BR/>Hugs,<BR/>JulieJuliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13553121852669901186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3027179631891898735.post-72698764238036542102008-07-25T10:19:00.000-05:002008-07-25T10:19:00.000-05:00Beautifully written...i needed this today!Beautifully written...i needed this today!Angela DeRossetthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13300138525442271956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3027179631891898735.post-20401887015796544472008-07-25T09:52:00.000-05:002008-07-25T09:52:00.000-05:00Thank you Amy for being so open.

Just this week (as I am doing the study 'No Other Gods' by Kelly Minter) did I allow myself to see what the Lord has been trying to tell me - that I am my own 'god'. I so often think I know better. Oh my. I am thinking that not until I actually let Jesus be the Lord of my life will I actually start to be satisfied (know who I am, feel His peace, etc.). Thanks so much for the post!Hopehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16549151347517280207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3027179631891898735.post-35040709674701646112008-07-25T09:11:00.000-05:002008-07-25T09:11:00.000-05:00Thank you for sharing the thoughts of your heart c...Thank you for sharing the thoughts of your heart concerning this!

I was thinking of one of my sons as you were sharing your story about the "lolly" and "skateboards" and the fear we have as parents. That same son was teaching the Bible Study last night and the subject was faith! Amazing how our Savior takes care of them! We ended the Bible Study with reading Hebrews 11! I just wanted to tell you thank you for sharing your heart!

It's by far the hardest thing I've ever had to consider really surrendering. (And here's a link to a post with my 2 year old doing an "air ollie." We haven't given in to his pleas for a real skateboard yet!) http://refreshmoments.com/2008/06/to-be-or-not-to-be.htmlRefreshMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17755273960702792845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3027179631891898735.post-39957624608456752722008-07-25T01:18:00.000-05:002008-07-25T01:18:00.000-05:00Wonderful post sweetie.Wonderful post sweetie.Denisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09275456448997619944noreply@blogger.com
