I have chosen to live my life according to GOD's will and it has liberated me from much fear and worry. So, what does it mean to submit to GOD's will? No, it doesn't mean to become some sort of Christian zombie. First of all, I realized that GOD's plan for me was a good one since GOD is love. When I accepted Jesus as my savior, I discovered the truth that everything that has happened to me and will happen, is all part of a plan that GOD has for me and it has lifted a great weight off my shoulders.



I used to have an inner fear of failure that caused me to not admit it when it happened, even lying to myself and others in denial. Now, if I strive for something and it doesn't happen, knowing that it wasn't in GOD's plan for me and understanding that HE has something else in store, allows me to move on with good cheer. I even get a little excited in anticipation of exactly HIS plan is. I believe that everything that we experience is to a greater design.



"Things have a way of working themselves out." This is a positive, upbeat attitude when faced with difficulties but things do not work themselves out. GOD works them our for us. We face trials and tests constantly and with faith, we pass them and things work out.



i have a family now and my old self would have been full of worry. How will I provide for them? I always said that if I ever had children, I would only do so if I could provide a better life for them than I had growing up, not that I had it so bad. I now realize that that attitude was just an excuse as I was scared of the responsibility. Knowing now that whatever happens, GOD will provide for us all has released me from all my fear and worries and you know what? GOD is providing for us just fine.
