So this is going to be a bit comical i think. I actually broke one or two toes yesterday walking into a metal chair leg while "rushing" about. So none of that was comical at the time, just in retrospect it seems a bit comical. There wasn't anything funny about the pain part.
So my last blog was about the Call of God and staying in the plan He has for us.
I have a week off and now have a foot that needs to rest. Today I was thinking. Oh Lord, did you really need to let me break my foot to keep me still enough to hear your voice and do your will.
I suppose if you saw the unwritten list in my brain that keeps getting added to of "What to do while on vacation/off work" you would say a big YES to that question.
There will be less confusion about what I can't do this week, and will be great reflection about what I actually do this week.
It seems that reflection before action is a great idea.
What are you reflecting on this week?
What are you going to do this week?
Take my advice, don't rush especially into a chair with your foot.
He does have a good plan for you when you seek Him with all of your heart. You can learn about that in Jeremiah chapter 29.

According to His purpose
And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose Romans 8:28
Called according to His purpose?
Have you ever looked back at your life and thought about all of the things you have been called to do. Have you done them? Are there things that you still think you are called to do and have not yet been done?
I have been amazed when I look back and see just what has been accomplished and at the time, I may not have realized it was happening as part of the "call". There are some parts of my life I know I would have liked to do without, yet I know I would not be the person I am today If I had not been through these parts of my life. Gods word talks about how He will not allow us to go through trials that He cannot bring us through. The key to this is that He must be the one to bring us through. That brings me to submission. Submission to the creator. Isn't it interesting the God created us with a free will so we can actually choose or not choose the path that He would like us to follow. what do you think about these things? do you have a call? from God? of course you do...do you know or think you might know what that is? do you think it can change? mmn...
