Life Happens

Accord­ing to John Lennon, “Life is what hap­pens when you’re busy mak­ing other plans.”  I agree.

Life seems to be hap­pen­ing to me quite a bit lately, in one way or another.  Do you know what I mean?  I’m sure you do, given the vari­ables in the busi­ness mar­ket, jobs, edu­ca­tion, work, your home, car and fam­ily.  I sup­pose I’ve been quite for­tu­nate in many of these areas, but oth­ers have not been so lucky.  I serve a mighty God who takes care of me daily.  He takes care of the spar­rows — how much more is my human soul worth than they?  He is will­ing that all should come to Him for guid­ance in their daily lives.

Do you ever won­der why progress is some­times so hard to acheive?  Oh the wealth of knowl­edge one must pour through in order to find a sim­ple equa­tion to bal­ance the work­place and home, school and church, fam­ily and friends, time and money and to sim­ply keep the world put together.  Throw in your own pas­sions and dreams and you will shortly find for your­self a conun­drum of thoughts and ideas that con­flict with and resist each other, each one vying for its chance to be in the lime­light of your ‘cen­ter of atten­tion’.  I won’t claim to have all the answers, but I’m pretty sure there’s one part of the equa­tion that remains constant:

( Me + God ) = “It’ll be OK”

I’m look­ing for your feed­back:  What plans have you made in the last month or so — and what has life actu­ally allowed to hap­pen?  Then comes the final ques­tion, “What are you going to do about it?”
