I am not
sure what the proper balance between is between living today to its fullest and
looking toward the future for what God has in store. I know God has great and
wonderful plans for my life and I want to follow that path to the best of my
ability. However, sometimes the knowledge of a “better future” causes me to be
exceedingly impatient and restless. I feel like I am wasting time; I should be
doing something greater. Yet, I know now is the time where I am being told to
wait and stop making plans but blindly follow the Lord… which is not my strong
point!
Psalm
16
1 Keep me safe, my God, for in you I take refuge
2 I say to the LORD, “You are my
Lord; apart from you I have no good thing.”
…
5 LORD, you alone are my portion and my cup; you
make my lot secure.
…
9 Therefore my heart is glad and my
tongue rejoices; my body also will rest secure,
…
11 You make known to me the path of
life; you will fill me with joy in your presence, with eternal
pleasures at your right hand.
