What am I here for?


Sometimes I wonder what God wants from me. I think about all the things that go on in my life and I can not seem to get a grasp on them. I try to make sense of it and try to put it is some order to make ME feel better about what may be happening. What I have come to realize is that the purpose God has set forth in my life is good and right no matter what I think. I am learning to "fall in love with Christ" and see my life as a vessel for His purpose.
Have you ever thought of your self as a distraction? I have found myself becoming a distraction. I have learned to distract myself from the very thing I thought I was working for a close relationship with Christ. We can be so distracted by teaching a Sunday School lesson that we do not even hear what God is trying to say through it.
I guess what I am trying to say is that I am slowing down to hear God and love HIm
