GOD MEETS US WHERE WE ARE...BE READY

We think when we hit a rough patch that we're doing it wrong. No! That's when we're doing it right...by being turned around, away from our self-determined objective (that to us seems/sounds so spiritual) to God's will, God's way.

That could explain why spiritual growth appears to take so long to become our first nature...we keep going back to our own idea of God's will, God's way.

When we are finally brought to admit that we don't know, fear stops us cold, but in truth that is our starter. To out loud admit I do not know is scary, but it is also taking the first rung of our ladder up. 

That's how we discover the second rung holds the prize, Hope. Face it, we would not go further if we had no hope. 

Too often we stay on the broken first rung, wishing and wanting. Actually, that's how we slowly learn the art of acceptance when, by grace and by God and without conscious effort, we hug it and kiss it and let it go.  

The unrealized blessing is where we are is where God meets us...as we are becoming ready and willing to be turned over to His will, His way, His time. 

Thank you.
