Given February 28, 2009I’ve got all these “things” I’m working on right now: project at work, writing, blogging, technology, garden, decisions, possibilities, etc. I’d like for all these things to just, “fall into place” or line up and be in order. They aren’t.
While praying about this on this lovely morning, I saw myself walking on the highway to Heaven and all these “things” were all around bugging me and pestering me. They were driving me crazy! Up ahead, I see God and soon I catch up with Him and begin walking alongside. As I do, He motions to the pestering things and they all move behind us and line up! They fall into place according to God’s direction. And some of them, God directs right OFF the highway.
1 Corinthians 14:40 says, “Let all things be done decently and in order.” This is in reference to the church but it shows that God is a God of order and not confusion. And, Jesus wants us to be at peace, not stressed out by the things surrounding us as we travel the highway to Heaven. “Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.” John 14:27
