I wrote this in a journal entry dated November 26th, 2010. I feel it's a good reminder, and I pray God would bring me back to this simplicity:
“Learning, Learning that Christ is sufficient in Himself. If I never get a degree, get a job, get a husband. If I never see the next sunrise, Christ at this very moment will suffice. I know this full-well by His overwhelming patience with me. To teach me now to trust, and walk, and cry with Him. My hip is torn from the socket. I want to deliver all limbs to submission. The greatest being my own arm that has held tightly to my own heart. Help me to understand what you are doing, Lord. I cry out for understanding...I believe your word has promised hope through Christ (Romans 4). It’s awesome! I long for that to be my only boast (Galatians 6:18)"
"And I--in righteousness I will see your face; when I awake, I will be satisfied with seeing your likeness."--Psalm 17:15
