I thought I would comment on it and share it with anyone who reads this. “Anyone who intends to come with me has to let me lead. You’re not in the driver’s seat- I am.” -Luke 9:24 (The Message) Here is the verse I was reading.... "...How unsearchable His judgment is, and His paths beyond tracing out!" -Romans 11:33 This is my short thought....How can we possibly think that we can have God as our Lord and Savior and not let Him have the reigns to our life? "His paths are beyond tracing out!"....There is no way we can expect to follow His path for us with out letting Him lead 100%. Because if we only let Him lead some of the time we are going to end up wondering half our lives not knowing which turn to take. My challenge is this...who’s in your "driver’s seat"? I think when it comes down to the truth, it's us? I don't want to live that way and I challenge who ever reads this to surrender to the one who can make your path straight and who can guide you through the most difficult mazes. This is not like driving; we can't earn a license and graduate to driving this life ourselves. IT is so much more unpredictable then the highways we drive on and God is the only one who can help us prepare for it and conquer it. - Good Message Ali, great wprds and great encouragement :) Hmm, I was reading over this again as I was writing down some thoughts and one of the verses connected to what I was thinking.
