Life has been a complete blur the past few weeks. I've been 'living' at church for the Living Cross rehearsals and presentations. In the midst of it all, I can't quite figure out what God is doing. It seems like there's a new 'surprise' around each corner. And yet, I know He's not surprised by the circumstances that surround me. As a good friend of mine put it, "God did not slap His forehead when He heard about this." I'm so glad El Roi sees...
He's never shocked by what we face. He's not unaware of our present state. He sees, He knows, and He is Sovereignly in control.
I struggle so much with understanding how the choices of His children, the human flesh that is so capable of failure, affect His perfect plan. He gives us free will - the freedom to choose, to be, to act, to refuse. How does my choice affect His perfect plan for my life?
I'm praying for discernment, wisdom and peace. I'm asking for His Spirit to guide me. I am striving to relinquish control and allow Him to lead.
Let it be Thy will, not mine! Help me not to get in the way of Your plan.
