God Chisel Me

This video really spoke to my wife and she passed it on to me. In response it has also spoken to me and I want to pass it on to everyone. It really speaks to life and purpose with GOD. Take as you want, but I will say this. I want to allow GOD control of my life.

Trust

People have a general issue with Trust. There seems to be as many different ways that people trust as there are types of rain. There are people who trust, don't trust, trust only certain people, trust any one, trust no one what so ever, trust conditionally and more than that.

Then there is Trust in God. With just as many different ways that people trust Him. I am just now trying to trust more in Him and make my trust more than it has been. I have the kind of trust that says as long as things are going well I trust you and when they change I want to complain, pray more and try to find ways to make things better, at least what is within my power to change.

I can trust some people sometimes. I don't trust some people at all. I even have the occurrence that I trust some people completely. Like my family. But trust is a hard thing to come by. I trust GOD when things are going well. I trust Him to be there and listen when I pray. Even when I am less than desirable to be around. Yes I have moments like that where I am not the most pleasant person to be around. Even spiritually unpleasant to be with by GOD's standards. Yet I do trust that He is loving me each and every day. He is there listen and caring for me each and every day. Yet I do not completely trust Him to control areas of my life. It is difficult to do that when you want control of your very life. There are many times in my life that I do not do what I should, I do what I want. Which is not the best way to live. Many people can be hurt by that mentality.

So I want to live as I should, not as I want. I want to be trusting, but still cautious. I don't want to blindly trust to the point of endangering myself or others. I also do not want to be pessimist and live like everyone is out to get me at every turn. So I will aspire to Trust! Trust in God as my Guide. Trust the unseen to Trust the seen. That will be my goal. To Trust more in God.

Travels and Journeys

Hello,

Welcome to my blog and to what I hope will be a new step in my life and my Journey through life. I am hoping to pursue my commitment to God and Jesus and to soon develop a better understanding of God's will for my life as well as His wisdom for and in my life. I will hopefully start to share that with you as I learn. I am hoping that this will inspire me to learn more, to write more, to develop myself more and to grow more.

As J.R.R. Tolkien said in one of his books; "It's a dangerous business going out your door. You step onto the road, and if you don't keep your feet, there's no knowing where you might be swept off to."

So I expect that this trip will be anything but easy. I look forward to seeing where I maybe "swept off to." It may even be a bit dangerous at times. We will just have to see where it leads and what is learned. So feel free to assist, enlighten, comment, and discuss the meaning of life with Jesus and all that it encompasses. I do not expect everyone to agree, but I think we can agree to disagree. I just ask that you be civil. This is not meant to offend, but to offer other views and allow other points of views to be expressed.

So....without further ado, welcome to the beginning. Look out world, I am chasing after understanding in Jesus and the Bible and the true "meaning of life, the universe and everything"!
