How to Map out Life's Journey!

Boy, I had one hell of a week.  Things happen that were out of my control and wonder what I was being tested for?  First, I was involved in an accident thankfully no one was hurt and today we lose power and had to start most of our morning with no electricity which meant no heat! 

I found myself looking, seeking and asking God for advice and to coach me through these uncomfortable situations.  I am not going to lie when life does not go as planned it can be confusing and frustrating.  I did not receive any direction from God either but, I felt at ease and confident this was just a bump in my journey.  I got to thinking we as Christians expect God to give us answers for what to do in everything, when life is tough we are overwhelmed because the road is not the direction we planned out on on our map.  We are looking for what we do, where to go, rather who we are.  We are more concern with where we are then who we are! 

When the accident happen believe it or not, I was calm; concern for the welfare of everyone and realizing and explaining vehicles are not a life.  Throughout any bad or uncomfortable situation it is essential to focus on who you are and the Christian you are becoming.  Do not be concern with the outcome but, the process of the outcome. 

The bible does not have a perfect design map of the life we are to travel but, it does give us principles to live by such as doing God's will, and it promises if you live by God you will have a abundant life to come. 

"Be joyful always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances, this is God's will for your in Christ Jesus."  ~Thessalonians 5:16
