The path of my life seems rocky, unsure and filled with potholes of varying size. It has innumerable cutbacks, detours and rabbit trails. I never know who I will travel it with or even when or if I will have a companion. Just when I think I know where it's going to take me I find myself going in a completely different direction. When I am sure it's going to be unpredictable it becomes drawn out and mundane, even boring in its predictability. I've come to the conclusion that the chaos theory is most definitely NOT a theory, but the reality we know on this side of eternity and heaven. There most definitely is an unseen adversary attempting to pull strings in my life, but being that he is a created being as are the angels that follow him, their influence is limited in scope by the unseen hand that sculpted them.
I have a little secret that I want to share with those that will read this. Right now in this very second I am not afraid! If I didn't know what I know about my Creator I probably would remain afraid all the time. I don't know how those who aren't intimate with The Most High, His Precious Holy Spirit and His Son and our Messiah Yeshua live through a single day. To live in such blindness and self sufficiency goes beyond anything I can imagine or care to consider. To trust in the frailty of flesh and the corrupted natural world seems foolish at best.
I have chosen to put my life in the capable and loving hands of my Creator. He imagined what I could become and that is what I dream of becoming. Why He has given to me all that I have is beyond my understanding, but I'm learning not to question His ways, but simply walk led of His Spirit. I have His unchanging promise that He will never leave or forsake me. I have His eternal promise of provision, direction and protection IF I will trust Him with ALL of my being. The enormity of that commitment might overwhelm me had I not learned that it is HE that works in me both to will and to do of His good pleasure. Yeshua told us that it was the Father that did the works in his life. Even our precious Lord relied completely upon Abba Father to work in him both to will and to do of His good pleasure. Yeshua lived completely by faith. He heard the Father's voice and did only what the Father told him to do! While he hung on the cross halfway between heaven and hell, he chose to do so by faith. He had no doubts while he suffered sin, death and the grave. He still suffered, but he did so without a single doubt! That gives me supernatural faith!
Though my life's pathway may be rocky and rough, God is the strength of my life and my portion forever.
