GOD WORKS IN MYSTERIOUS WAYS
Have you ever heard that Catholic proverb, God writes with crooked lines? It reflects the belief that even in life’s twists, mistakes and hardships are part of a greater divine plan. It reminds us that while our path can seem chaotic sometimes, every detour serves a purpose in God’s unseen plan. In other words, God has a plan and if something happens to us there is a reason for it. As most of you know, I fell off a ladder and was hurt. I feel God had a hand in my fall. Without the fall I would not have discovered I have an underlying issue. My body is not making enough blood or I am leaking somewhere. Through all of this, I reflected on what happened. Through all of this I reflected on if I trust the Lord enough, have I closed the door a little instead of leaving it wide open? Through prayer and reflection I have come to feel that God is calling me deeper into the relationship, but I am still asking the Holy Spirit for answers. The one thing to remember is God loves us, he has a plan for us and he cares for us in ways we don’t understand at the moment, but God knows all things. Is the door to your heart wide open to God?
