Did you think life was going to turn
out differently than it has? I guarantee you're not the only one! I know, I
know - that didn't make you feel any better, did it? Me either when I tell it
to myself.
One thing Facebook has succeeded in doing is keeping me in touch
with friends I grew up with. Sadly, this also means I hear about far too many
of my friends dying at young ages. Their life didn't turn out the way they had
planned either, but I still have my life and so do you. Maybe it's time we
choose to let God do something beautiful with them.
I believe God brings an awareness of the lyrics to me when I'm
ready to hear them. Or perhaps when I need to hear them, whether I'm ready or
not.
This
happened to me today. I had been thinking recently about how smooth things have
seemed. I feel like things are solid with God, my faith isn't wavering, I'm
serving, only going through minor little life stuff, and basically flying under
the radar and in a holding pattern. I consider that a decent place to be, if not even a great place to be.
However, if I were to be really honest, I know it's not a good place to be
for one reason. I'm not growing. These thoughts were bouncing around in my head today
when this song hit.
One More Thing...
Can you name your broken pieces? Are they familiar because you spend time with them? Are you ready to give them to God? It scares me a little bit, it's okay if you're nervous.
Take care, and I'm always here to pray for you if you have a need or request.
