My Life, My World

As a child we often played connect the dots.  As I recall, it was one of my favorite things to do.  I remember as I progressed through each and every one, that as I went further I could start to see the picture.  I’m sure you can remember something similar.

Looking back over these last few months, I can see the “dots.”  Each and every Bible reference in Church or in my own private study was somehow exactly what I needed to hear at the time.  I participate in a Bible study at work.  We would discuss a particular topic on Thursday, and somehow that would tie into what my Pastor covered the following Sunday.

I’ve just kept progressing from point to point with my excitement and amazement growing at each and every step.  As I look back now, I realize that these are dots and with God’s help I’m starting to connect them to make the picture of my life.  Its entirely too early to know what that picture will look like, but He knows.

As I examine my life as a whole, I realize that in God’s plan, I’m behind in where I should be in my connect-the-dot excercise.  For the majority of my adult life I’ve strayed away from God and my faith.  However, I’m back on track now and with His guidance I’ll make up for lost time and complete the picture that he has in mind for me.
