Trusting God Conquers Fear

September 7, 2021

When I am afraid, I put my trust in you. (Psalm 56:3 NIV)

When I was in 7^th grade, I was terrified of an 8^th grader I will call Kim. One day Kim asked my name and I told her. She must have forgotten so she asked another day. When she asked a third time, I turned and walked away.

Surrender Like Jesus

April 5, 2021

*Jesus called out with a loud voice, “Father, into your hands I commit my spirit.” When he had said this, he breathed his last. (Luke 23:46 NIV)*

God: Adrienne, what would it be like if you fully surrendered?
Me: I don’t know
I continue driving to work

Then he said to them, “My soul is overwhelmed with sorrow to the point of death. Stay here and keep watch with me.” Going a little farther, he fell with his face to the ground and prayed, “My Father, if it is possible, may this cup be taken from me. Yet not as I will, but as you will.” Matthew 26:38-39 (NIV)
