Do you sometimes feel as though your whole life is uprooted? Nothings seems to go right, what you thought was going to happen isn't even on the radar anymore, and you are left feeling hopeless and maybe even depressed.
Sometimes it takes this kind of situation to get us to look at the bigger picture - God's picture. We can hear from God and get His perspective on what we are to do but still put God in a box and see only what our finite minds can comprehend.
There's more than one path to where we're going. We might visualize the fastest, most direct way or even a scenic route but perhaps God is calling us to create a new way of getting to our destination. If this is the case, no matter how hard we try to get there our way, we will only become more and more frustrated until we eventually lose hope.
If you're struggling with getting to where God wants you to be, ask Him for directions. Don't assume you know the best way to get there or even the means of transportation. We serve a creative God who has millions of ways to get us to where we are going BUT usually has a specific way He wants us to go. His way is always the best way.
