~The Navigator~

But I trusted in, relied on, and was confident in You, O Lord; I said, You are my God. My times are in Your hands...


Psalm 31:14-15 AMP and Psalm 139:16 AMP



If there was someone who had seen every single day you ever lived, and they knew the beginning, the end, the middle, the end and every other day, minute and hour in between and they loved you more than anyone possibly could wouldn't you think it was a good idea to put your time in their hands?
This is the position that God occupies in all our lives whether we give him control or not. He knows every detail and He totally loves us more than anyone ever could. He is unlike any other as he has our interests 100% at heart and he knows us better than we know ourself.
Now that is one I can confidently trust in and rely on. Even if I don't understand what is happening today I know that he at least knows the big picture and He is watching over me.
I would rather my times be in his hands than my own for I know if I follow His plan for my life everything turns out for better than I could have asked for and He sees the steps that lead me to those places I need to get too.
He is pure, just, righteous, holy, faithful, blameless and he knows every obstacle and how to get through it,over it, under it or around it.... He can be my Navigator!

~Stronger Not Weaker~

After having been through so many tests in my life, now I sense when I am in one. And when I can sense that I am in one then I know that I want to do what I can to get through it more quickly rather than prolonging my stay by my unwillingness to at least TRY!

I wouldn’t want to go through all those tests again but thankfully they have shaped me to be who I am and actually, I am mostly quite happy with who I am!

The tests have made me stronger and more confident rather than completely robbing me of hope and faith. Hopefully through them I will LEARN less lessons!
They are rarely ever pleasant experiences mind you!

~A Calculated Risk~

~A Calculated Risk~

Its hard to get the balance right in so many areas of our lives. I think the thing about dreams is remembering they are 'dreams'. Of course some of them can come true, and some of them most certainly will, and there are also some that won’t.

We have to be careful to not be delusional in our dreaming but there is so much made possible by our dreaming. Dreaming expands our world and our boundaries so that's the good part and gives us something to aim for.
