Running On Autopilot?

The busyness of my day and the uncertainty of life have caused me to run on autopilot. What I mean by that is there are so many factors that are uncertain, I don’t know how they will “pan” out BUT what I do know is that God is before me so I trust the path He has me on. My days are full! I get up early to work out, then I get ready for my day, if need be I go to the “Chekie” office before heading to work and there I will be for the next 8 hrs, I arrive home around 11:30pm to rest a bit then I call it a night. The day repeats itself, I may try to mix it up but these are the basics of my day. A new factor is I’m taking a course to be certified in cruise lines so that has been another thing added to my list. May I get to enroll for a couple of summer courses at Truman College; believe it or not I’m very excited about this!

In the beginning when I was trying to get a grip on this new schedule of mine I was feeling numb to life. The weather I know had something to do with it as well. Day after day the skies would be gray and that had an effect of me. I tried to keep my head above water and continue in the direction I was going, it’s not always easy though, some days were tougher than others, and everything was an effort. So what did I do to get to the other side of all this craziness?

1. I trusted the Lord, plain and simple! I knew the Lord had placed me here in this new city and that I am NOT alone. I may not be able to see the finish line but I trust the One who placed me on this course.

2. I hold on to the promises the Lord gave me and continues to give me. For those days when I’m feeling lonely, I remember ALL that God has shared with me about my future, and I wrap myself in it. Remembering His promises is vital!

3. I remember that change is always around the corner. Just when you feel weary, spent and numb to your situation know that God always has something new waiting for you around the corner.

I feel the winds on change once again in my life and I am ready!!
