When I am following You, God, I feel a bit lost most of the time. But that makes sense. I am not leading You. You are leading me....following You is the only way I can make a great and beautiful difference in the world.
I know when I am listening to You because Your Spirit encourages me, points to the truth, lets me decide, and holds me accountable. And somehow You always make it work out. You provide the necessary resources: wisdom, strength, time, helpers, money, skills, and all the unanticipated things that I never could have planned for anyway. More wonderfully, You redeem my mistakes. You weave beauty out of my broken, mixed-up threads, not for my reputation or ego, but for the common good.
