Lead On!
I don't believe that I have a right to complain about my terribly insignificant problems any more. Not that I ever did have a right - It's just that when you are living in your own world - they seem so much bigger.Recently - I have tried to live with my eyes more open - aware of more around me (hard with four kids) I finished a Beth Moore study - Daniel- living lives of integrity. Integrity! Who would have thunk it! It really changed my thinking and approach to life. Living my life for me has NOT worked - I need to live my life for God.
A friend of ours was injured severely in a swimming accident about two weeks ago. He is in Florida, away from his children, waiting for a lift home (which hopefully is happening today). He can not move his arms and legs (very little in his hands). Yet through this all - his faith has not waivered. He BELIEVES that God will provide him with all he needs. Even after the first flight home was scheduled and then later denied - he still new that God had it under control. And he does! I want that kind of unwaivering faith.
Why does it take such a terrible event to snap us back into reality that we NEVER were in control - and trying to live our lives one step ahead of God will only bring us further away from where we think we need to be - So - I'm letting God take the wheel in my life - in all ways. I can't wait to see where He leads me!
