I MISSED THE BOAT, BUT I'M ON GOD'S ARK!!!



I MISSED THE BOAT, BUT I'M ON GOD'S ARK!!!

 After hearing last night's sermon again today, God spoke to me in a completely different way although it was equally amazing!
Overall, in so many exciting ways I realized how much that I need to seek hard after God and the wisdom EVERYDAY! It seems like I may have missed the boat from a worldly perspective, however I am reminded once again that everything will happen as it's supposed to happen in God's time-- I just need to quit letting my mind slip back into the "worldly perspective" way of seeing things.

MISSED THE BOAT

MISSED THE BOAT
I woke up crying. Being the “spiritually “near-sighted” person that I am (and apparently always have been), I now see that I have missed-the-boat since way before my accident.
 Jason, a TALL friend from MS had a crush on me in high school but I was too head over heels for someone else to give Jason the time of day. There was even a period that his best friend and I lived in the same house and our paths crossed frequently, but I didn’t think anything. Jason is now happily married to an equally TALL lady and has a beautiful wife.
I know that God has the right man for me, it just seems like the good ones are gone. WAIT A MINUTE!!! There I go being spiritually near–sighted again—I can’t see the future and  I have NO IDEA who God will bring into my life.  I just need to calm down and and remember what was in Paul's letter
28 And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. 29 For those God foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers and sisters. 30 And those he predestined, he also called; those he called, he also justified; those he justified, he also glorified. Romans 8:28-30
THANK YOU JESUS for bringing my near-sighted thoughts back to You --reminding me that You are far-sighted and can see the future! LIFE IS GOOD!
