So I thought to share with you all., and know many of you have dreams and aspirations., visions of things you see to come. I just want to say be certain its Gods will for you.., if you are feeling torn it may be between the Spirit and the Flesh. The flesh and its worldly desires and the leading of the Spirit.., if you feel torn like there is a war tearing you apart maybe handing everything up to God would be a good start.

Gods will not ours.., the devil comes innocently enough., it could have been a prophecy from some passing self proclaimed man of God telling you one day you will travel the world and Evangelize. Not saying ditch any prophecy., just saying be sure they are of God.

Heres a good indicator., if there is any PRIDE involved in your vision., or SELF

Maybe you are procrastinating the some big wonderful world safari while Gods purpose for you is right in your town but you have made it below you

Maybe the prophecy is real but you are set on the big dream and God is trying to build you up on the small things

No man can know of his own future.., if you have an image of your future perhaps you should hand it up to God and say not my will but yours

The road to hell was paved with best intentions., its not the intentions that counts here., its obedience to God

Excellent words Crimson. Who else can be where you are but you? Its certainly true others will
say all kinds of things...and say the Lord said. But He works in such a powerful way in our life we
just dont even notice. But your life has been known of Him and He will fulfill His promises to finish
His work in Us. We can trust that, while we are not looking at things that are seen. Love Him
and let the peace that comes from knowing He will make all things work togather for good.

And its correct that self and pride can mislead us. And yes obey God this is the whole duty of man. :)

Love thy God with all thine heart, mind, soul and body and to him give the glory for it is rightfully his.

Good words!
Man may plan His course, but God determines His steps.

Some may ask how does one accept God's will?
It is with a humble heart that says ,yes Lord, to what one does not even know, or that which one does not want, or what is not of ones own will, but compleatly in Jesus, trusting all , no matter what, to God Our Father.

Thankyou and God bless.
