Concretely, abandonment consists in seeing the will of God in all people, events, and circumstances present to you. If God tears up your beautiful game plan and leads you into a valley instead of a mountaintop, it is because H wants you to discover His plan, which is more beautiful than anything you or I could have dreamed up. The response of trust is "Thank you, Jesus," even if it is said through clenched teeth.

Oh, that I may trust enough to say "Thank you, Jesus," through clenched teeth. May I know at all times that even the valleys work together for the good of those who love God.
