Remaining Pliable

After more than a year of incredible upheaval in my life, it is extremely tempting to let my heart harden and my life normalize. However, over the past two weeks every sermon I hear and most scriptures I come to have been reminding me not to harden my heart, especially the first 5 chapters of Hebrews. I like the comfort of feeling settled and knowing where I stand on theological ideas. I enjoy knowing what to expect and how to plan in life. This is not what Father wants from me. He wants me to simply come before Him and walk with Him, embraced in His arms. As I face each new situation, He will lead and guide. I don't need to plan ahead and iron out all my theology for life. Rather, I can come to my loving Father and turn to His word again and again, each step of the way in this life. This is the loving relationship I long for, and the more I get to know my dear Abba, the more I am comfortable trusting Him with my pliable heart.
