The Path?

Image
I read this saying: the other day:  "does the traveller choose  the path, , or does the path chose the traveller?"   Good question, I thought to myself thinking about what the answer should be. Then popped into my head another saying: "if you don't plan the hunt your just waking in the woods".   So after much mental debate  I concluded that however easy it might be to just let the path chosen for me  I would think God would have me choosing the right path being lead by the Holy Spirit to join Him in what His plan for my future may be.   So I ask myself am I even on the right path? did I chose this Path? did God? I then thought well I will give my will and my Life over to God so that "He will make my path straight" and I will enjoy what comes along the path today and be thankful for all the blessings in my life, I will take the path before me one step at a time and try just to do the next right indicated thing.  Today I pray my path takes me into

The Lost son

Take a look at what many consider the greatest story ever told: The story of the Lost Son. “There was a man who had two sons. The younger one said to his father, ‘Father, give me my share of the estate.’ So he divided his property between them. Not long after that, the younger son got together all he had, set off for a distant country and there squandered his wealth in wild living.” You see, this son couldn’t care less about his father; all he wants is his money. “After he had spent everything, there was a severe famine in that whole country, and he begun to be in need.” Hard times have come, and men are out of work. Famine has set in the city. Eventually he finds a job, feeding pigs, but no one gives him anything, and he is forced to eat the pigs’ food. He finally comes to his senses and says, “I will set out and go back to my Father and say to him: Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you.

To be a "Overcomer"

Wow, I was in Church today and they read off a list of where people might be at in their life or things they are  going through and I was astounded at all the things God has brought me through in this life's journey so far, I know I have a long way to go, but thank God I am not were I was.  I am in a new season in my life, working a different kind of job, Kids gone, grandchildren to Love, Life has become so much more manageable now that I just do my best to let God work things out and  and trust in His will. So what do we do to be a overcomer? Well we must have a thankful heart, Pray and most important never give up! Sometimes we can struggle for many years and still find ourself waiting for victory over something or another in our lives. It is certainly a progression on a long journey  not a one time event, I believe we will forever be learning and growing for I realize the more I know the more I know little. There is always a new level.
