I like to know where I'm going. I like to have a plan. Show me the map or tell me the plan and I'm more inclined to be willing to be on board.
But life isn't always like that. There are days when I don't know what will happen tomorrow. The plans in my head need to change as other people make their own plans that don't always coincide with mine.
Being married to an entrepreneur doesn't help. After all, entrepreneurs thrive on risk and love adventure and creating. On some day, my heart does flip flops ...or so it seems.
But God.
"Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make straight your paths." Proverbs 3:5-6
Am I willing to trust that He will make straight my paths?
My answer is ...yes I am willing!
STOP
Blessings and love,
Oh I am so like you. Such a planner and someone averse to risk. Trust doesn't come naturally to me at all.... and yet Faith is all about trust. Great post Friend

ReplyDeleteYes - being the wife of an entrepreneur is a topsy-turvey organizational adventure! I like reading book-endings first - so sometimes this daily journey has my hair standing on end! But we have to live in faith:) Walk tall in it! Blessings to you in your journey!
