Currently sitting in a Starbucks in Craiova, Romania watching people walk past me on a path that is straight. A lot of them on their phones trying to walk in a straight line and not hit anyone while texting, tweeting, facebooking (Is that proper english?), on the phone. Multitasking to say the least. Literally looking at a screen but still trying to walk straight.
Depending on what to make sure they go straight? The phone screen? Most of them probably know where they are going so it is easy to look down at the screen. But what about when you don’t know the path? Your eyes are usually off the screen.
I don’t like depending on God when it is easy. When life looks like something you have seen before and know how to handle. For the past two months my season has felt like a drought when it is supposed to be raining. I am on an adventure to bring life to people with God on my side, but that has been where I am wrong. Most of my life I have been living with God by my side or even behind me but God should be the one leading the direction and carrying me through what he desires. Especially when I know the way, even when I am looking at my phone. Depending on the Lord for what he wants for my life and the people of Romania. It is so simple depending on the Lord but again I am the one that makes it complicated.
Depending on the Lord is the most conscience decision too. Every morning you have to wake up and make a conscience decision to depend on him and give him the brokenness that makes you human. But what I have really learned in the last couple of weeks is that Peter walked on water depending on the Lord and the Lord saved him after he sunk. Sink or swim the Lord will save me.
