The River, Our Life....

Good Morning Christian Peeps! If we have ever been on a river we know that the river flows at it's on pace. Sometimes it's fast and other times it's slow. It curves where it wants and does not bend to anyone's demands. Our lives are a little like that. For the most part we are not in control. We flow here and there turning where our lives lead us. Sometimes we grab a branch and try to change the flow but ultimately we end up probably where we were headed anyway and only succeeded in taking a small detour. We can learn from the river though. We can learn to just roll with the tide, paddle to keep ourselves straight and ride out the big waves laughing as the water threatens to drown us. It's so much more fun and peaceful when we just go where the river (life) takes us instead of fighting the river every step of the way. Just like the river we do possess a creator who oversees both journeys. He doesn't interfere unless we ask but once in a while if we get in over our heads he will send a branch to help keep our heads above water. It's not the end destination that the river is wanting but it is simply embracing the journey. Be Blessed!
