A Better Normal

This is a past blog post that seems very relevant to a sitaution I'm facing. Sometimes I need reminding...

Just when you think you've got it all figured out, and you're going about your day to day life without a care in the world, God gets your attention. He certainly got mine.

I had gotten so wrapped up in the day to day, telling God what MY plans are, and not seeking His wisdom in any of it, that God knew that He had to get my attention. He did. Last week was awful. I know now that it was God's way of getting my attention, and apparantly, He had to take drastic measures to do so. Sometimes that's the only way.

All I wanted was to get back to "normal." But God has a different plan. He doesn't want me to get back to normal as I knew it, He wants to bring me to a "better normal," a normal that far surpasses anything I can imagine. God wants that for all of us I think. So I'm trusting Him in the meantime, until He has brought me to the better normal where He wants me to be.
