Life is a mess, it's messy.

Now, this is not a post about something bad, it's just something that I've really noticed. I used to have these plans and I used to think that life could be ordered and planned out, that everything could be kept neat and tidy. Perhaps I thought that I could be in control or something.

Well. I was wrong. I'm sure it can be neat and tidy and sometimes it does go to plan. I think for most people life is a mixture of half knowing what's going on and not really having any clue at all. If you're life makes sense and you understand every bit of it then..good for you, I don't think that's most peoples experience.

It's good though. I think it's better when I have no clue because then I rely on Christ. When I feel out of control then I have to trust that He is in control. When things get easy, comfortable and predictable then most of the time we start to put more hope in our own plans and abilities.

I'm not sure what I'm getting at here really..Just maybe that God is in control and that it's so much better that way. He is able to keep us from falling and present us spotless before the father. He knows every path we will tread and every situation we will face. If you start to really believe that then the future is much less scary, it might even become exciting! woo! ;)

To him who is able to keep you from falling and to present you before his glorious presence without fault and with great joy

That's amazing, that He will keep me from falling and present me faultless. It seems impossible to me, but it's a promise. And the joy, He will present us and be completely overjoyed with us..WOW no?

Right now I have no idea that the future holds. I seriously don't. I have some idea of what I would like to happen but lately I think it's best to give that to God too...Give it all..it's safe with Him and if you give Him everything and trust Him completely then you wont be disappointed.

Ok, I waffle too much...where did I learn to waffle? I have no idea.
