The one you'll never read
Hey.
If anyone actually still reads this thing, hello. Haven't been in a blogging mood lately. Mostly because life has been a bit unhinged. For me, that's saying something.
I titled this post "the one you'll never read" for a reason. It's because the last blog post I wrote was so raw and real, and at the same time, so completely WRONG about what I thought God was doing in my life.
I should have known better.
It's an abundant life and tonight, I'm able to sit out on the patio and enjoy the new table the neighbors gave me. I'll never figure me out. I'm air conditioning the house and sitting outside even though the Dodgers are on TV. I can't watch.
They're killing me.
Most things are these days; to the point where a lady I worship with prayed with me last Sunday. I had a dilemma that pretty much took care of itself, for the time being, and in the mean time, I'm trying to live by the answer to that prayer.
Sometimes God uses the situations we face as teaching moments. This moment, I'm getting to learn how to follow His peace, while trusting in Him and leaning not to my own understanding. And to put that point more bluntly, God reminded me that the pot doesn't dictate to the Potter. Asking why or trying to even understand at this point is completely out of the question.
That's not what He's teaching me. It doesn't mean He isn't telling me things. He is, in a variety of ways, all of which He uses to accomplish His purposes. Sometimes I have to back up a bit to see all of that, and in that moment, that's where I can see Him and find His peace.
Like now.
It's a good life.
