"How does this end?"
"What's the point?"
"Is that even legal?"
"Is Jersey Shore a real thing?!?!"
"Why hasn't child services come for Honey Boo Boo?"
"Is this the real world, or is it just fantasy?"
"DO I want fries with that?"
"Is this dry clean only?!"
Okay, so maybe not all of those, but still.
My life is a constant stream of questions and uncertainties. I'm always wondering if I'm doing the right thing, headed the right way, following the right path. It haunts me at night sometimes, and almost everyday. Most of all, where is God leading me?
As this new year dawns, this question is biggest in my mind, and connects to all of those other questions.
It makes me question(shocking I know) the decisions I have already made, and the ones I will soon make. As all of this weighs heavily in my soul, I'm reminded of some verses in Proverbs chapter 3
"5 Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. 6 In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.
7 Be not wise in your own eyes; fear the LORD, and turn away from evil. 8 It will be healing to your flesh and refreshment to your bones."
This is a stark contrast to my worrying nature. Because trust and worry are pretty much the antithesis of one another. I think selfishly my favorite part is in verse 8, where it says that trusting The Lord is even refreshing to your bones. I can't think of anything else that is so healing it reaches from your soul to your bones. It's a blessed assurance in a new Year full of piling up questions.
Have a blessed new year, and may trust in God bring refreshment to your bones.
