Through Jesus, therefore, let us continually offer to God a sacrifice of praise - the fruit of lips that confess his name. And do not forget to do good and to share with others, for with such sacrifices God is pleased. Hebrews 13:15-16

The Path...

Sometimes we hit a crossroads in life. When you must make a decision for change. Change sometimes forces the uncomfortable. Forces the value of what is important and what isn't. We often need that little shove to say "ok" this is what has to be done. When we look around and can't see progress it time to wake up. It's time to say "Lord I'm here, what do you want for me?" We can no longer sit idle and expect something to just happen. Yes, we trust. Yes, we stand faithful. But there must be movement. There must be a step forward in search of the right path. If the path is never tested we stand in confusion. We stand still. Too afraid to make a move in fear it might be the wrong move. But what if it's the right one? What if it's the move that changes everything. What if it's the move that opens all those doors that have remained shut for so long. Sometimes we get too comfortable where we are. Sometimes we are just furniture taking up space...Never making the "wrong move". We are predictable and trustworthy because we are always the same. What happens when we start moving? What happens when we take a step down "that path" and test the stability of it. What if? I truly feel God had a plan for all our lives. Not all are called to minister. Not all are called to teach. Sometimes we are called to serve. Sometimes to be a comfort or be a listening ear. When we are searching for that "it" we are called to do we pray. We seek guidance. We earnestly search and study Gods word in revelation. The song "I Wanna Live with Abandon" by Newsboys circles through my head constantly...these words

There's gotta be so much more to life than this
A higher calling that I missed
I want my life to count, every breath
I wanna live with abandon
Give You all that I am
Every part of my heart Jesus
I place in Your hands
I wanna live with abandon

So all I can say is that if you don't know your place in this world and you want to know. Search Him. Seek Him. Lay it at his feet daily. The answers will come. Remain faithful. Trust and know that in His timing it will be revealed.
