What if we let God fulfill us?
So many girls find their fulfillment from knowing the guy they like likes them back. While it's a sweet, comforting knowledge, it's not life's greatest joys. Real fulfillment can only come from Christ and your relationship with Him. We should be so completely wrapped up in our ''love lives'' with the Lover of our souls instead of fleeting, fickle emotions.
I don't want to be someone who has to have a guy tell me I'm beautiful to feel beautiful. I want to be independent of being absorbed over any guy but Jesus the Love of my life. My Prince. My ever after. Even if I were dog-ugly, I'm precious in His sight and that's good enough for me.
Now, back to that question. What if we did let God fulfill us? What if we were confidant in Him? What if He were all you need? What if we were stopped caring about other's opinions and cared about His opinion?
I'm not saying having a relationship with someone is wrong or not time worthy. I'm just saying that no earthly relationship can ever fulfill completely. I'm not saying that it's not comforting to know someone you like thinks you're beautiful. In fact, it's really really nice. But, it shouldn't consume me.
So, I declare my Independence through my dependency on my relationship with Christ. What about you?
''Welcome to the planet. Welcome to existence. Every one's here. Every one's here. Every body's watching you now. Everybody waits for you now. What happens next? What happens next? I dare you to move. I dare you to move. I dare you to lift yourself up off the floor. I dare you to move. I dare you to move like today never happened. Today never happened before. Welcome to the fallout. Welcome to resistance. Tension is here. Tension is here. Between who you are and who you could be. Between how it is and how it should be. I dare you to move.''
This was phenomenal, Kaylee. It is a decision that God has brought me to in my own life. Allowing God to fulfill me...letting Him be "enough"...Yes, you do get tested...but, more importantly you find...God is MORE than enough. I'm so incredibly pleased with your writing, Kales. You are a fascinating writer...keep it up. More than that, I'm so pleased with what you have been allowing God to do in your heart and life.
ReplyDeleteMay I say this...being 28 and single...I'm content...He REALLY has become the Lover of My Soul. And, you know what? He's the most amazing Man that I've ever met. I look forward to meeting my own Warrior Poet...but, I can't imagine any relationship with any guy being more incredible and more intimate than what I am enjoying with Him. I hope you continue to seek that intimacy with Him as you continue to stay faithful to that special "one" that He has for you. I admire you, Kaylee. Once again, thank you for the wonderfully thought provoking blog. Keep journaling!
Beautiful thoughts!
