Choosing To Be Who You’re Called To Be

    The revelation of God is whole
      and pulls our lives together.
   The signposts of God are clear
      and point out the right road.
   The life-maps of God are right,
      showing the way to joy.
   The directions of God are plain
      and easy on the eyes.
   God’s reputation is twenty-four-carat gold,
      with a lifetime guarantee.
   The decisions of God are accurate
      down to the nth degree. (Psalm 19:7-9 MSG)

I am a person with very bad sense of direction. I hardly know the difference between left and right and struggle big time when it comes to remembering how to get to places. People around me know it and I embrace it with JOY! But even though it can take me hours to get somewhere, I am determined that I am not going to give up AND I praise God for google.maps.com (PRAISE THE LORD!).
The bible teaches us that we are children of God, a chosen people who God calls. But even though God has called us to something, it doesn’t mean that we will get there automatically. We have to search for direction, pay attention to the road, listen to advise and diligently remember the wisdom of people who has gone before. These verses from the psalms tells us exactly this and that following the path that God leads us, will take us to the place He calls us.

Father, thankyou that I can be your child and know that you have a plan and purpose for my life. I want to choose life and what you’ve called me to do, but I also recognize that I need help, direction and guidance along the way. As I make a desicion now to find the way you have for me, I ask for your help and I cling close to you, Jesus! Amen!
