Iside My Mind

I greatly enjoy wasting a few hours during the day within my own imagination. Problem is, I never get anything done.

What will life be like in 7 or 8 years? I'v imagined quite a few possibilities over the past few weeks. They all seem pretty good, I think I would enjoy any one of them. However I get the feeling that none of them are accurate. I can't seem to figure out why but they all seem to be missing something that would bring them all together so I could see what might actually happen, and not what I would like to happen.

The only thing I know for sure is that life is a gift and I should use that gift to glorify my Maker. In anyway, and every way, possible. I'm not the wait-and-see kind of person, but in this case maybe thats the right approach. I can't see the future unless God were to show it to me for one reason or another. And even if I could, would I like it? Would it make me feel better knowing what is going to happen? 

Or, would I think It's boring, bland, flat-out-lame and wish something else would happen instead. And if thats the case, could I change it? 

Thats the real question I suppose. If I don't like how life is turning out can I just change it right there, right then and go a completely different direction. Would I be able to get away, or would I get sucked back in to the same dull outcome? 

Gods plans are exactly that, His plans. and whatever He has for me I'm sure I'll enjoy it, or at least I'll enjoy the outcome. I guess I get caught up in my own mind a little to much and start thinking differently for a while. Whatever Gods plan is, I'll accept it, live it, breath it. His will is perfect and I'm honored to serve his purposes. 

I guess what I'm saying is, like Isaiah in 6:8, "Here I am, send me!" work thorough me to bring Your Kingdom!
