Who's In Charge? 11/5/2024

 Good Morning,

I have a Thermos bottle of very hot, very strong, Door County Jamaican Blue Mountain Blend Coffee ready to travel with me. I will be working at our city election polls today and some strong coffee is in order. 

Sometimes in life we hit road blocks and detours that were unexpected or planned. Things just don't seem to fall into place and peace is not on the horizon. God seems to be silent and not pouring out his wisdom or directions. 

I have been the recipient of times like those and it always comes back to me. I can usually go back in time and see where I started doing everything my way and without consulting God. During those times my closeness with God was distant at best. I had to stop and remember the key to life and my relationship with God depends on my attitude.  " Not my will, but your will be done Lord" 

In order to have that Spiritual attitude, it requires humility and trust in God. It also requires obedience to not only cast your concerns to God, but trust that His way is best. 

1Peter 5:6-7 Humble yourselves, therefore, under God's mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time. Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.

If God isn't speaking, may be He is tired of us not listening. 

Food for thought!!!!!

Marty
