C'est La Vie

I always find myself asking God to show me his will for my life. It's always the same: "What do I do?" or "Where do you want me?" That sort of thing. I treat God's plan for my life like it's something to wait for or something to achieve.

Wrong.

God's will was yesterday. It's today. It's tomorrow. And it's every single breath I breathe until the day he takes me home. I can't keep wasting my time wondering--it's happening all around me! Every word I speak, every step I take, every thought I think, God knew about even before he set this world in motion. That in itself is incredible.

Of course, I still have plenty of questions. Things I pray about constantly that still can't quite seem to fall into place...but they will. I have no doubt. Until then I just need to look at what's around me and where God has me today. Not tomorrow, not when I graduate. Now. I truly believe that God is always speaking to us. We're just not always ready to listen.

"But never interpret our numbness as his absence. For amidst the fleeting promises of pleasure is the timeless promise of his presence." - Max Lucado

So beautiful. And so true :)

And maybe I'm not necessarily hearing the answers to my questions just yet...that's only because his timing is better than mine.

C'est la vie.
