Just like every other human who has ever lived, I find that searching for God’s will is intense, challenging, overwhelming and confusing. There is so much advice to process and so many options to consider.
I thought of the clip from Disney’s “Alice In Wonderland” where the little Mome Rath creatures show Alice the way. They scurry into formation and take her to the path that will lead her home.
Brilliant! I WANT SOME MOME RATHS.
As I asked the Lord for these little pant-creatures, He brought to mind His promise of direction from Psalm 16:
“You have made known to me the path of life;
in your presence there is fullness of joy;
at your right hand are pleasures forevermore.”
It doesn’t tell me where to apply for a job, but it does tell me where to find my life. My hope. My peace. The rest will come as I seek first the kingdom of God.
Lean not on your own understanding, Lydia. Seek Jesus. Lean on Him.
Oh, Lydia! That verse is like my theme for life! It became one of my favorite verse at back to DC 2011 when God showed it to me four different times. One of those times was from you!
I pray that God will reveal to you His perfect will for your life! I know that being in His Will and His Presence is complete fullness of joy. 🙂
love ya!
Thanks, Kailey! I am encouraged to know that God is at work in all of us on so many levels at the same time.
