Just don't know where I am or where I'm supposed to be…or if this is where I'm supposed to be.For some reason, that thought crossed my mind this morning and I almost burst out laughing. How many times have we been someplace that we know is not where we wanted to be or had not planned on going (reaching)? Then to come to realize that we had wandered from the direction we wanted to go. It happens to me almost every day. Sit down at the desk to "do" my Bible reading, and next thing I know, 10 emails have gone by, with links to sales or jokes, or that require replies. Before I know it, a half hour has passed and other things NEED to get done. Oops! There goes the Bible time – oh well – tomorrow will get here soon enough. Whether it's the kids, dog, cat, wife, birds, neighbor – there are things that get our attention and take us away from where we were going.
Then, the tendency is to worry about what we did not get done or where we are not (now that's a sentence). Amazing how God gets His message to us in ways we least expect. The "lost" thought came to me as I set down for my reading. Then after the reading, when I started working my way through my emails, there was the "Devotional From Dr. Gil" on Proverbs 12:25. It talks about how anxiety effects our lives. Gil says "The key to fixing anxiety is action. Do what you can do and leave the rest to God and others."
Now that would help me get "unlost" and back on track. Just in case you want to check out Dr. Gil, you can go to Devotions By Dr. Gil
