The Old Willow...

In Waiting...

I have been waiting for an answer to the crucial question we all ask in life... What should I do? I have been asking it for many months. Some days I felt like Don Quixote, fighting with the invisible...
As I look back, I can see how I have grown through this time. Even past few days my perspective on talking to God have changed drastically. I no longer pray for what I want, rather for being in the place where God wants to use me. I am learning the difference between a blacksmith and a tool. You see, I have been striving to be the blacksmith when God wanted me to be the tool...
Amazing how much peace and joy, of the simplicity of life and the goodness of my God, I have today. Nothing else matters. My life is in His hands and I am happy with whatever He wants to do with it...
You may wonder... why? Why, in this age when people boast in their accomplishments and knowledge, I do not care. No matter how hard we try to live a good life and to accomplish great things, we are not able to control this earth and this life. We are not able to determine our future. But there is the One who is able... I learned that it is better to trust Him, then to be on my own. He has never let me down. He changed my life. He gave me freedom and allowed me to discover who I am.
That is why I choose Him, and I choose to trust Him... He is good beyond expectation.
