Rollercoaster Future

So... I'm going on holidays tomorrow. I leave early in the morning and am going to visit the family for 3 weeks and watching my little brother getting married. 

Packing for a three week trip is difficult! I don't know what I'm going to want to wear in three weeks. I don't know what the weather will be like. I don't know where I'll be going or what I'll be doing for a large portion of the time there. There are so many variables of what could happen. Packing, was quite a big task! 

It got me thinking about the future. We don't know what the future holds, three weeks is difficult... how do we know whats coming in the years to come! GOD KNOWS! 

Now I'm not really talking about holidays and asking God what to pack, but just our lives. When we don't know what's ahead of us, God knows what is waiting. He knows what the weather is going to be like for us, and He will help us prepare for that. You hear it said all the time, that life is a rollercoaster. The good thing is that God knows where this roller coaster is going, He knows exactly what you can take. I guess He is a little bit like the restraints that hold you in and keep you safe when you are on the rollercoaster.

Roller coasters go up, down and around... and they go fast! Life is like this sometimes, it goes by so fast, one minute its on the way up, then it's going down, then it feels like we're going around in circles. The truth is... we probably never know exactly where it's going... but as I said. God knows! We need to put all our trust in Him and know that He will give us all that we need. He will walk us through the ups, and the downs. He will help us be prepared for these moments. When we listen to Him, the roller coaster ride will seem less bumpy!

Thankful for: Choices

We all have choices in life, even as a Christian, God has still blessed me with the ability to choose. And when I make the wrong decision, He will forgive me, He will still love me, and He will help me to choose the right decision next time.
