Life and Curves

I love the way the first eight verses of Psalm 119 reads in the Message Bible.

Psalm 119:1-8---You’re blessed when you stay on course, walking steadily on the road revealed by God.

You’re blessed when you follow his directions, doing your best to find him. That’s right—you don’t go off on your own; you walk straight along the road he set. You, God, prescribed the right way to live; now you expect us to live it. Oh, that my steps might be steady, keeping to the course you set; Then I’d never have any regrets in comparing my life with your counsel I thank you for speaking straight from your heart; I learn the pattern of your righteous ways. I’m going to do what you tell me to do; don’t ever walk off and leave me. Life can throw you a curve from time to time. Each of us has certain desires and even set goals for our lives. Many times when we do so we never consider the plans God may have for our lives, I know I am guilty. Sometimes we just have to flow with the curve, let go and let God have his way. To let go and let God have His way means we turn completely loose of the steering wheel and let God do the steering. I have failed miserably in this area at times and today I want to recommit myself to surrender all to Christ. All to Jesus I Surrender!!
