Is this it? Am I living out God’s plan for my life NOW? It’s amazing to me that I have had to go through so much personal loss, but is that all part of His plan? I think so. I spend a lot of time in reflection on my current situation and if I let satan have his way, I can get very depressed. When I allow myself to have “upside down” thinking, I actually get excited. It’s amazing how our perspective can change when we allow ourselves to believe we are RIGHT WHERE GOD WANTS US TO BE. Even though I am 50 years old and feel like I let so much of my life slip away, I still have a lot of life to live for the Lord. When I allow Him to excite me with this radical point of view, everything makes more sense. Imagine if everyone started to embrace the trials of life and thanked God daily for loving us enough to guide our lives. When I allow myself to engage this new perspective, things don’t look so bad. Can you allow yourself a new perspective?
Look at your life and know that God has you right where you are for a specific reason.
Ecclesiastes 3:11 (NLT)
3:11 Yet God has made everything beautiful for its own time. He has planted eternity in the human heart, but even so, people cannot see the whole scope of God’s work from beginning to end.
