Following the star

The beginning of the good news of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.As it is written in the prophet Isaiah, “See, I am sending my messenger ahead of you, who will prepare your way; the voice of one crying out in the wilderness: ‘Prepare the way of the Lord, make his paths straight,’” Mark 1:1-3

I started this blog after reading a great devotional site that I found today for Advent. This verse has really inspired me and has spoken to me. I have lately felt like that voice crying out in the wilderness but I have been to focused on what my voice is saying and not enough of listening to what God is trying to say to me. I tend to forget that He is always with me and that my path is planned and that He is in control of the path that my life will take and it is frivolous for me to try to control things that I can't. Ultimately everything will happen in Gods time and not my own. Ephesians 2:10-For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand so that we would walk in them.

Thank you God for your perfect timing. Thank you for sending the ultimate gift of your Son to save us from the darkness of the world. Thank You for sending the ultimate gift of Your Son to save us from the darkness of ourselves and for the redemption that we can cherish in knowing that You have planned our way and that we shouldn't worry about what the outcome will be. Let us(me) not be discouuraged and now that You have always been our Father in heaven and be encouraged that you have made our path for us to live in the Glory of You. Amen!
