Tonight’s a night i’ve been feeling extremely vexed.. from everything life is throwing at me. feel like i simply have no time. no time no time no time. kudos to those who are in professions even more busy than mine. i don’t know how you guys do it, but it is amazing i must say. what is God’s plan.. what am I not doing right.. why is everything like that …where do I go from here.. what should I do now…………..
How many times, I wonder, do we become frustrated that life isn’t working the way we think it should? We keep trying ways that seem right, but things keep turning out wrong. Instead of following God’s Word, we continue trying to find our own way.
The singing bowl reminds us that we can’t expect life to go well if we ignore the instructions of the Designer (Deut. 4:40). Failing to obey divides us from one another and separates us from God. To fulfill His plan for the world and make the way of salvation known (Ps. 67:2), we need to follow His instructions about living and working peacefully together. When life doesn’t go well, it may be that we’ve stopped following God’s plan.
Sure it takes a lot of courage to put things in God’s hands,
To give ourselves completely, our lives, our hopes, our plans;
To follow where He leads us and make His will our own;
But all it takes is foolishness to go the way alone! —Kline
