Have you ever been here? Just restless with your circumstances. I hate that feeling. It reminds me of something I heard Anne Graham Lotz say. Jesus too was bound as they led him away to the cross. His hands bound. He could have broken free at any time, but let himself stay bound so that God's purpose could be accomplished. Many times I've wanted to break free from the bounds of a job, marriage, the place I live. I would say even today there are things I want to break free of. Looking back though I'm glad I stayed 'bound' as it has accomplished His purposes.

This post also reminds me of JJ Heller's song "Fly away", here's a clip of the song

Thank you so much for this :) I just found your blog by way of a friend liking it on FB and have been blessed by it. I'm right in the midst of that bound feeling and this spoke to me beautifully! My hubbie & I have a toddler & baby in our one bedroom apartment. It has been a difficult, but beautiful adventure and the Lord has been in it every step. On long rainy days I sometimes forget that He has placed us here & is growing us through it. Today was one of those days & He used this post to remind me.
