What I do know is that He loves me, and I trust Him. What does God have planned for me in the future? What is he doing in my life that I don’t understand right now? I don’t know. “ But seek first the kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given you besides.” (Matthew 6:33) Whether you’re having an easy time or a struggle in your life right now, sift out the distractions and make your relationship with Him your primary focus. Jesus invites us to come to Him, not only physically and mentally, but in the deepest place in our hearts. In the example I gave, I went to Jesus (physically) in that church and He gave me exactly what I needed.
#Gods timing not mine free#
You know, those beings He made in His own image and likeness, gave free will, and even died for! If He does that for birds, imagine what he will do for the crowning achievement of his creation. Look how He takes care of the birds in the sky, providing for everything they could possibly need. Are not you more important than they?” (Matthew 6:26) “Look at the birds in the sky they do not sow or reap, they gather nothing into barns, yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Why on Earth don’t we trust him? There’s something important we need to remember when we don’t feel like He’s right there with us: He can see the entire path and whether we feel it or not, He’s constantly reaching out His arms to hold us, carry us and guide us. He loves us so much that He died on a cross for us. Logically, if you can’t see the next step, you don’t know if you’re going to trip or stumble, but somebody right next to you, who loves you, can clearly see, so why wouldn’t you trust him? We are walking a path with a lot of steps but we can only see the next step or two. I urge you, run after Jesus with all your heart whether you feel Him there or not. If you are reading this and you are confused about what God is doing with your life, or struggling to believe that he’s really there with you, I understand, but I can promise you that He is. I believe the timing of all of it was by God’s design and may have even protected us from a worse break-up. She also had things going on in her own life and needed space. Had we still been together those events would have been tough on the fairly new relationship.
For a while I was in a bad place mentally and emotionally. Just a few weeks after the break-up, I went through several unexpected and difficult life events. God provided exactly what I needed that day and led me right to it. I just felt a tugging at my heart that I should.
I hadn’t seen this friend in almost a year, I was on a walk without a destination, and I didn’t want to go in that adoration Chapel. Some may call that a coincidence, I call it providence. In the adoration chapel, she had literally just finished praying for me as I walked in the door. She spent time talking with me and even brought me to dinner with her family, just what I needed that day. After praying for a little bit, I went outside and talked with her about what had just happened. She saw me and smiled with a surprised look on her face. As soon as I walked in I saw a friend of mine who I hadn’t seen in a long time praying in the chapel. As I kept walking I looked back at the church and kind of felt this tug at my heart to go in, like it was something I needed to do, even though I didn’t want to. I thought about going in to pray for a few minutes but I was really not in a state of mind to stop and concentrate on prayer, I just didn’t feel like it. I walked by a Catholic Church that had an adoration chapel. I didn’t know what to think or say, so I just went outside and took a long walk. When this happened, I was confused and despondent. One day the relationship came to an unexpected halt without much explanation. At the beginning of the year, I started dating this wonderful girl.
