Shanon and I have found ourselves in a lot of strange places.
We often will look around and realize that what we are doing or where we are going doesn't really make sense. Now, most may say a simple "change it". Which sounds easy enough, but in reality, we aren't in charge.
What I mean by this is that we really have surrendered to God's plan for our lives, and believe me; we have thoroughly checked, nowhere in the Bible does it say that God's plan will always make sense.
The major issue here is that sometimes one can let their own conventional thinking take precedence over what God is actually communicating.
Obviously, you want to do whatever God is telling you to do, even if that means staying somewhere that is quite confusing to you. Believe me, we can identify.
Some people have a "life verse" that they use for signatures and things of that sort.
Shanon and I have a life prayer.
"God, give me peace in the things you want me doing, and no peace in the things you don't want me doing."
This has become a staple in our daily life. I challenge you to make it a part of yours.
God always wants us to understand what he is communicating.
We always should want to hear and do what He says. Even if that means that it won't make sense.
