All of us have heard this from counselors and teachers. “Which direction do you want to go?” We’ve thought of it in our younger years wondering about our choice of vocation. What do I want to do with my life? It is a very puzzling question because most of us don’t know the answer. We think about it and it leaves us in a quandary. Life has directions in it every day. We go to work or to the store to buy food for our table. We go places every day in some fashion or another. But what direction is your life going in ultimately? That is the eternal question.
Begin by following Jesus Christ and your life will have more meaning than you can imagine. Seek to know Jesus Christ and He will give your life a clear direction and a purpose.
What’s one thing you wish you had started doing earlier in life?
Learning more about my faith and my Savior. It’s easy to do but most people rarely read it. I understand that some translations are hard to understand, but there are other translations than the King James version.
All of us have those days that try our patience. We lose our keys or our glasses. The car won’t crank or maybe its making some awful noise going down the road. Hopefully, these things won’t happen on a Monday or a Friday but we don’t have control over any of it. God will help you through it. I know when these things are happening it doesn’t feel like God is anywhere near you, but He is.
God loves us and He is there with us wherever we may be. That is why I pray while I’m driving. I need Him to be near so I can get to my destination and back home again. I know He’s always near, but it makes me feel better when I’m in traffic. Our lives can be so useful to Him in many ways. When you have accepted Jesus as your Savior, you have access to Him all of the time, every day and in any situation. You are loved more than you realize because the love of God is like nothing we can imagine.
God gives us the strength and the faith to make it through many situations so don’t think you can do it on your own. For some things you might be able to get by without His help but even those could’ve been easier with His help. We are very stubborn at times and I know that I’m not the only one. Allow God to come into your heart and your life so you won’t be going through bad days or good days without Him.
