Trish and I are in the process of evaluating some things in our lives, trying to really figure our priorities. Obviously, we want to do what GOD wants us to do; we want to be good to one another; and, we want to take care of our children. But, there are lots of other things in life that directly influence those three things, and we are trying to pray for GOD to direct our path.
These are my thoughts this morning. Sometimes, I think we are afraid of the unknown and afraid to step out in faith. Because of that, I think we can miss GOD'S opening of doors until He has to push us through it. I admit that I often need a bit of nudging. It can be intimidating to think about changing jobs, especially when it means less money. It can be intimidating to think about changing churches, or moving, or any of those really "BIG" decisions.
Today's word is a quote I came across on www.MesmerizingQuotes.com, which says, "As I look back on my life, I realize that every time I thought I was being Rejected from something good, I was actually being Redirected to something better."
In the process of evaluating things, I can look back and see that those times I thought things were really trying and somewhat terrifying, it was in those times that GOD was actually redirecting me to something bigger and better. Yes, it hurt. Yes, it was uncomfortable. Yes, it was confusing. But, it was always for the better.
Trish and I are so truly blessed. We know that GOD has directed us, that He does direct us, that He will continue to direct us. And, we know that whatever He does will be better.
Be Blessed,
Mickey T
