#STABILITY #SETTLED (THROUGH ALL OF IT)

So, I'm sitting here wondering how I will close my year.
For many, the year has been a story of chaos and confusion and trust me, I don't have a different story either. Funny enough is that my word for this year was stability,
yet there was nothing stable about the episodes I had to live through.
You see, we all have an idea of who we are or what the world is until the universe decides to shake things up just to prove you wrong. But wait; there is a God who does not allow this to be the end of the story.

You were there when it all came down on me

When I was blinded by my fear

And I struggled to believe

But in those unclear moments

You were the one keeping me strong

This is how my story's always gone

The one lesson I've learnt through this year is to never expect God to move the way I think He should always move. In many cases, just when I thought I had figured something out, something would shake things up again and I had to go back to ask God what was next. 

And to be honest, it is when the waters are raging and the foundations are shaken that we get to realize what true stability means. 

I have won 

and I have lost 

I got it right sometimes 

But sometimes I did not

Life's been a journey

I've seen joy, I've seen regret

Oh and You have been my God

Through all of it

I have been tempted to be bitter, angry and frustrated. However, I choose to see it differently. From a place of peace, I choose to pick up the lessons, embrace the one true Stability and believe that in God, it is already Settled; We win.
