Certainty and Assurance

Recently I have felt like my life is so up in the air. There is just so much going on and so much that is uncertain. I feel like there are so many things unknown and out of my hands. Sometimes it is frustrating. Sometimes I am ok with it all because I feel like I am growing. Sometimes I am so overwhelmed I don't even know what to think.

In church yesterday we were on the topic of being certain and being assured. "What is the difference?" "Can you give and example?" I sat in my seat and thought about it. Hmm difference...example...ok I am not certain when Jubilee is going to be here, but I have assurance that she will come. Just like I am not certain where God is taking us in our lives but I have assurance that everything is for His Plan.

It is hard to have assurance. Peace and being content and finding a calm go right along with it. Sometimes I don't want to be that person. Sometimes I just want to freak out and say "I can't handle all this God. I need to know what is going on and I need to know where you are taking us in this life." Maybe that is just it....maybe He wants to teach me to do and go wherever He wants and be whatever He needs me to be without having certainty...but having assurance that it is in His plan.

Hebrews 10:22 Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith
