Yesterday's post didn't make much sense and I'm thinking about deleting it but as I was rocking my little boys to bed last night I was thinking about somethings a friend of my said years ago, ok well maybe not years ago, but now it would be 4 years ago. I changed the name of my blog because things in my life are changing in every which way and the name descibes it perfectly whether I'm by myself or at my job. I see things more clearly now thanks to my job.
The saying that the title is part of is this one: "Life is not always perfect but who would want that. If that was the case, then we would have boring lives." At first when you read it, you might think God never gives us a boring life. That is true. God works with us and we are messed up. We are no way, sorry to say it perfect people. We have sinned and will keep sinning. We plan out this what we think is our perfect life and then God comes in and turns the whole thing around. We wonder why He did that and even ask Him sometimes but it is for the better or at least it has been for me. I'm really seeing the part "Life is not always perfect" at my job. All of us have perfect lives compare to the children I work with but ours might not be perfect. We are live different lives so why compare ourselves to another. God has a different story for each of us and we need to live that story.
Another saying that I'm been thinking about and the same friend wrote me is "God is always changing and growing us, and it is never good to be comfortable, because if we are we aren't open to the things God could be making in us." I have almost spent a year at my job and I still don't feel comfortable in it because things keep changing like new workers, new children every 3 months, and so on. People have their different ideas that I can learn from. I'm not comfortable but yet I'm learning things at the same time. God is teaching me things about myself and the children and the children are teaching me things about them and me plus workers are teaching me different things about the children and maybe something I can use in the future.
It is strange how my blog is turning out to be about how Life is not always perfect. I mean I have stories about the children on here and sometimes they aren't perfect stories and mine certainly are not either. Where would the adventure be if we all did live perfect lives and not let God have control. My mottos for this year and I think it would be neat for a family/ my future family if it is in the future is: "Life is not always perfect but why would we want it that way. If that was the case, then we would all have boring lives" and God is always changing and growing us, and it is never good to be comfortable, because if we are comfortable we aren't open to what God could be making in us".
Those two sayings wraps up one main thing we need do to for God. TRUST HIM and let Him lead our life and things will turn out perfect. Maybe not to our liking at all or right away but in His Timing and Love.
"Today is a blank page. Yes, there are some things that need to be written in, and you could surrender your pen to them, letting events, exceptions, tests, and the judgements of others write this chapter. Or, you could take some time with God, that author and completer of your Faith and start writing today as the adventure He shows you it can be."-Rob Coscia "My heart is overflowing with a good theme as I recite my composition for the King. My tongue is the pen of a ready writer."- Psalm 45:1
