Life seems to have turned a corner.  I feel as though I'm heading in a new direction. I'm just not sure what the direction is yet. But, I'm trying to be willing to go along.

I feel as though something has shifted. Perhaps a new window of perspective has been cut into the box I put my life into or perhaps a door has opened inviting me to step out further in faith. When dealing with the spiritual world it's hard to convey the subtle shifts that take place. Even harder to explain and see is the transformation that God is bringing about within me. The metamorphosis of my soul from death to being fully alive.

More often these days I find myself being unsure of where God is taking me. As the truths of His Word become more solid beneath my feet, everything else has become more fluid. I'm less sure of where I'll be in five years. I don't make long-range plans quite so readily.  Everything can change in a second.

Perhaps becoming flexible is all part of God's character training program. Rigidity and a refusal to change just don't seem to fit with allowing God to work in my life. Afterall, His ideas about how my life should go are far different and far better than my narrow-minded viewpoint. I can spend a lot of time hacking out my own rabbit trails, or I can follow the well-worn paths of the great cloud of witnesses that have passed this way already. While I try to learn from their examples, the spiritual journey seems to be very individual and experience the best teacher.
