We walk toward _____

We walk toward _____

(and we walk away from something else)

          There are many things ahead of us as choices which we can select.  But in so doing, we are also walking away from something else.

          Everything we walk toward is a choice we have made to participate in, but also includes something we’ve avoided.  We move away from instances and experiences, choosing the thing we will be a part of.

          Whatever we have chosen, God is there in our midst.  We can include God into our life and make it a fuller experience.  If we try to do it without God the occurrence is lacking completeness.  Someone once wrote “Those who do their own will are constantly running into their own limitations.”

          Picking the thing we will do may be an easy choice or convenient or fun or not.  The accomplishment might be fulfilling and a blessing, if only we can see the benefits.

          Walking toward something can be so rewarding that gives us so much and fills our life with blessings beyond belief.  We can sense much more because we are aware of things we might have missed.  The questions for which we seek answers provide many blessings when we are ready to receive, when we are open to what they offer.

          Walking toward opportunities feed us in many ways because our search has opened our minds and hearts and ultimately our souls to be blessed.  Placing ourselves in such environments gives us a zone to see and hear and feel the things God is sharing with us so graciously.
