It's A New Day

But the jar he was making did not turn out as he had hoped, so he crushed it into a lump of clay and started over again. Then the Lord gave me this message: O Israel can I not do to you as the potter has done to his clay? As the clay is in the potter's hands so are you in mine. -Jeremiah 18:4-6

I was reading over these verses today and I was once again overwhelmed at the thought of my Father bringing me to the point of my brokeness and making me pure, holy, brand new and beautiful! So here's to new beginnings! This time I'm not in control (or trying to do things my way)... I'm riding shotgun and I want to follow His will completely. That's my prayer this year and throughout my life.

I don't need to be afraid because... He knows the best for me.
The Lord says I will guid you along the best pathway for your life. I will advise you and watch over you. Psalm 32:8

True courage is to keep traveling when you can't see the map.

If you want to know what He has to say just follow Him. Stay close. Ask and keep asking and listen. He will make it clear. the closer you are to Him, the easier to hear what He's saying.

Stay close to Christ! Remind yourself that being one of His disciples will feel like an unscripted adventure most of the time. The journey is definitely not a one size fits all. But He has a plan!
