God I really hope You're at the wheel because I know I'm not!
And if I were, I'd be too impaired to get anywhere anyway.
Life is crazier than usual these days, which is to say it's pretty crazy. I find myself asking God almost suspiciously, "hey... are you taking me to such-and-such a place?" And sometimes they can be places that I like. And sometimes they can be places that I'd rather not visit. And sometimes they can be places that make me chuckle with the absurdity of the idea. It's a good thing I don't take the underground to work - random guys laughing at nothing on the transit system tends to creep people out!
But He doesn't always tell where the destination is. I would be tempted to figure out how to get there if He did. But I'm not at the wheel. He is the driver; He is the navigator; He is the fuel. I am the car.
Some of my coworkers think that my whole attitude towards the possibility (or probability) of being out of work this year is a bit cavalier. But I'm not apathetic or blasé; I just have the knowledge that the place where God would have me be is a better place to be. Wherever it is, I'm certain it will be a fantastic adventure. For how amazing it is to see God at work in other people, though you will only ever see the tip of the iceberg there. How much more amazing is it to experience Him yourself! Is there any adventure more exciting than seeing God at work in your life, even when you don't know where you're going?
