Musings

I believe God is in the constant process of changing us. Constantly trying to get us to give up the stuff we cling to and give it back to him. Whether it is money, family, success, history.

The very limits of our capacity to remember, to store stuff is proof enough to me that these things will disappear and should never be an end to themselves. God is the beginning and the end. He is the one worth knowing and then the rest falls into place.

Someone once asked me what they should do (ie. planning for the future). I asked if they had asked God. They said yes and didn't get an answer. So after they changed where they were going in life. I believe for the better.

I have come across this as well. How do you make choices where God doesn't give a clear answer? I believe we have to try to make the best choice we can given the circumstance but I believe we should give it to God first.

C.S. Lewis talks about that our very "demanding" for an answer is maybe what keeps God us from hearing God. Maybe we need to learn to listen better, but I believe if we trust God, he is there changing our future for the better even if we can't hear him.

God bless you,
God lead you
God speak to us,
God I love you
