HOLD YOURSELF UP TO THE LIGHT AND SEE WHAT YOU'RE MADE OF

was just having a conversation with someone when we lamented on the fact that none of us drove. we were sour over the numerous missed opportunities of fun - with a car and a licence we could watch dvds till way past 12, then drive out for supper before heading home. each new opportunity of convenient late night entertainment seemed to mock us about not having a licence to drive.

alot of what if's flew about our head:
what if we could drive..
what if we had a car..
what if we could drive over to so-and-so's place for a late night dvd...
what if after that we could head for supper..
what if what if what if..

Sunday's sermon then reminded me:
God has a place and purpose for us.
we are exactly where God has intended us to be.
God has intended things to happen for a purpose.
why are we complaining? why are we grumbling? why are we regretting?
we are missing God in the picture.

God let me see your purpose in my life.
let me live a life of no regrets.
where i know your purpose is directing my life.
where i know there is only good, better, or best.

amen.
