Complete and Total Surrender...

Faith...
  The word is thrown around a lot, but what is it like to have true faith in something?
Today's world tells me to put my faith in my own abilities and totally believe in myself to make my life what I want it to be. Do I really want to do that? I am unreliable, lazy and I have a tendency to give into procrastination...So, no, I do not want to put my faith into something so unstable.
   I've been dealing with filling out college applications and going to auditions lately. A process that is full of suspense and stress. If I did not have faith in God, then I don't know how I would've done anything. I've realized that I need to turn everything over to God. Fully, trust him....He has made things happen that I could have never done by myself. I have been truely amazed by his grace. I have not been the best Christian, by any means, so I don't understand why God has blessed me with so much. I don't understand the unfathomable love...I just wish I could give just a little bit of what He has done for me back to Him. I want to be fully reliant on God, and just live a life devoted to Him...
   I'm not a perfect soul. I've had doubts and I've always questioned God's plans. Why? He does everything for my good and I see that more and more everyday. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. God is good. Even when I'm so far away. God is good. Thank you.
