jeopordy!® with God
answer: fat chance buddy! now go to your room and read romans 8:28 again. or isaiah 30:15, 18. or luke 21:19. or isaiah 49:23. or hebrews 6:12. or isaiah 64:4. or romans 2:7. or isaiah 40:31. you catchin' My drift?
question: God, this whole life thing would go a lot more smoothly if You could just let me in on that little thing we like to call Your will for me. seriously, we could eliminate a lot of those dumbass things i'm prone (read: guaranteed) to do from my end, and i might actually accomplish something that brings You glory. after all, that is the point of all this. it doesn't need to be line item detailed, that'd take all the spice out of things. but maybe something like where You want me to go and what You want me to do next?
i'm all about the 'love God and do what you want' lifestyle, but it's recently become apparent that some of my strongest desires don't jive with what You've got planned...so i'm not sure what the deal is right now. a straight up vision would be pretty sweet, but if not, a simple, strong conviction would work as well. wait, those have been iffy lately...yeh, let's go with the vision. or we could wrestle or something. i'm lost, my world is upside down, so whadda Ya say? how about that certified letter i've been asking for?
'i will wait for the LORD, my soul waits,
and in His word i hope'
~psalm 130:5
