Don’t Faint Meditation: The Business of Living

Life always has something for you – and when I say something I don’t mean something you asked for or wanted. But that’s part of the business of living.

The other part is the things we must do to stay afloat, survive and thrive. I am many times terrible at doing the things daily I know I need to do. But this is a new season of my life and in order to make it I have to. EVERY DAY God has something for us to do, to say, someone to meet maybe. If we give up on the daily business of living, we will miss so many marks.

But here’s something I’ve learned: start with a plan, set goals to break the plan down, then focus on tactics to get you there. But remember that even though we plan our own way, it is the Lord who guides our path. I’m sure He doesn’t mind us making plans. In fact, I think He honors go-getters who go after what they want in life and ask Him for approval to do so. The only problem is that sometimes we don’t get an answer right away and need to take action to stay active. If this is you, be encouraged. Make your plans but YIELD when you DO hear from God.

If He does correct or redirect you, don’t feel bad. He disciplines those that He loves. If that’s the case I know He loves me! I know He loves you too…
