Saturday greetings all! Here on the home turf it's been a memorable month full of unexpected challenges and blessings.
I've had many opportunities over these past 31 days to gauge how I'm doing thanking God for the "hard stuff". Pluses and minuses I find on my tally sheet. Is your life like that?
Why is it we can be traveling along minding our business on this highway to heaven the Lord has put us on and WHAM, out of nowhere either there is a huge "rut in the road" or a "mountain" in what was moments ago a clear path?
It can happen in a second and if we're not ready for it .."watch out".
Fortunately the Creator of the universe, Almighty, Sovereign God has guidelines and roadmaps to help prepare us for these interruptions. His Word is our "Manual for Living". He augments His Word in our lives with teaching through dedicated pastors and bible teachers.
Many times when I'm reading scripture and have a particular decision or dilemma on my mind the verses for that day are just what I need to either stay on track or change course.
There also are those times that I don't consult the Lord and try to make my own way apart from His instruction,,,trust me, not a good move.
As this month draws to a close, I'm reminded that the remaining months of 2010 will bring new decisions and dilemmas for me and for you dear readers.
It's my prayer that we will fix our eyes on Jesus and trust Him to lead us where He knows best!
Blessings all!

Dear reader,
ReplyDeleteAny ruts or mountains you're facing? Has God's word been a comfort?
i do too have challenges to face in the months to come, but with Jesus' company all will be endured in a better way.
