Life gets crazy. Work demands, soccer games, home repairs, shopping trips, relationships to maintain, and important, ongoing conversations to have. It's enough to make you the most inflexible person alive!
On top of all that is the heart-cry we all have to discover and do what God is calling us to. I don't know about you, but I'm in THAT place almost all the time... wondering what the LORD wants me to do when I grow up.
My family is in that place right now, prayerfully trying to determine what the LORD is leading us to and how we are to get there. It's a confusing, unclear time... but one where we're learning some very valuable lessons.
Most of all, we're learning the family life requires a great deal of flexibility, because we are not God. We get our plans in place, work toward them, but many times find that our plans were not God's plans. Sound familiar to anyone?
This episode covers a very helpful truth I've discovered that's helping to take the pressure off by increasing my faith. Family life has never been so good when I'm able to keep the truth in mind!
