God's Story

Liz and I spoke today about how our lives are a small snippet of God's story. (Her learning from a book called Crazy Love.)  I've known that stories in the Bible are not about the person in the story; they are telling us who God is and what He is about.  Today I made the connection that our stories are the same.  With that new perspective in mind, it has thrown me for a loop as to how to pray about the future.  I've already been struggling to know what I want.  I don't know what I'm hoping for or what God is up to in my life.  Now the struggle is to discern how God wants to use me to tell His story.  It's not about me at all.  In this very moment I feel as though I am open to anything God may be doing, but I just keep looking up and trying to find it.  I know what I have a passion for, but I am not sure He is calling me to do that.  I'm waiting, watching, and listening.  What part will I play in God's story?
