The past few weeks have presented me with many challenges, and I’ve been trying to gleam God’s guidance in anyway that I could. I tried praying, and kept getting side tracked by random thoughts.
It wasn’t that normal “God please bless tomorrow, hmm, I need to buy that book tomorrow.”
It was more like “God, please bless tomorrow, and I wonder if there is a connection between monarchical governments and their societal level of tolerance towards tradition.”
Not So much
I tried talking to people, lots of people, lots of random people, in hopes that the Holy Spirit would move them to drop a nugget of wisdom, a casually discarded comment that would be my gold treasure.
I just got angry with people. And God.
But yesterday a cool thing happened. A friend of mine replied to an e-mail I sent her, and something in it sparked a note of gratitude, a reminder of how blessed I am, and in the process, how God got me to each of those places.
Each one of those blessings had a one common denominator: love
And when I look at the decisions I have before me, only one shares that common denominator. I feel like its the best way to go.
Ill get into this on a deeper and more personal level soon, but I guess the moral of this post is you cant know where your going if you don’t know where you’ve been. Sometimes praising God for his glory shows us his will more than any other thing we can do.
