God, I need you as my Co-Pilot! | Christian Mom's View on God's Partnership

Gulf Shores, Alambama

When life is crazy and overwhelming I often wonder where God is?  God is suppose to be my co-pilot but, I feel I am on my own on this journey of life.  A journey filled with ups and downs and much uncertainties.  I know I am suppose to trust God and give my worries to him but, I feel he may have forgotten about me or punishing me.  Why do I still have these feelings. 
Why can't I hear him and know what he wants me to do?  Did I abandon God because I wanted to be on this journey alone or did he forget about me?  Was God with me all along on this journey?  Am I ignoring God on this journey?

I try my best to let go and let God steer but, maybe I need to take over.  Do I think I know what is best?  In my heart I know God knows what is best even though I hate his choices because they are uncomfortable, uneasy and take me to ports I do not want to visit.  When I am use to things being done my way or he has given me a path to follow  that I am not sure about I question and cannot let go of the control.  I do not want to walk the path that is hard, I want my life to be simple and not complicated.

Now I am sitting here reevaluating who is the actually the co-pilot, is it me? or is it God?  It is natural for me to want to steer I am a leader with a "take charge"  attitude.  I do not like to take risk and be uncomfortable while living.  If I make the "jump" into unchartered territory I am worried about the risk, and the consequences God is offering!

When God steers I am faced with challenges that I would have never thought of and he gives me several opportunities to stretch my Faith and trust in him.  I worry more about God's outcomes, and I know I need to leave my worries to him; he will lead me to a great quest that will change my life.

Can I still worry?  Can I question God's decision?  I believe yes, but I cannot question the journey but, I have to live and know he is with me at all times.  God is there to guide me, council me and take me to Glory  even when life is difficult!
