Step 1: Daw the map, Step 2: Hand it over for approval

God told me today that he is going to start helping me make the decisions i need to make. Which is awfully exciting...
I've been struggling lately with knowing what it is that God wants me to do and how. But tonight I had an very interesting discussion with a wonderful sister in Christ- Lisa :). Something she was saying is that her view on "God's will" is that its not a straight path that we must follow, but a forrest full of adventure, that we approach with a compass, map and traveling companion- then pick a route and say to our companion "what about this" and He says "Sure, I''ll go with that". It helped me think about that maybe I dont need to go searching for the specific one thing God has planned for me but too look at all the possibilites and make a choice (a rational, well thought out one of course) and ask God what He thinks. Maybe I'll get struck by lightning or burned up by flames- and then I'll know its a no and to try a different route... but maybe I wont, maybe I'll feel Him saying "yes Sarah, I like it, I know your future and I can agree with that plan".



So thats the plan for now, to think properly about the choices and decisions and hand over the results to God for the final judgment.... tick of approval or flames of torture... who knows, but I am ready and waiting... :)
