The Unsettled Post

Ezekiel 10:6 When the Lord commanded the man in linen, "Take fire from among the wheels, from among the cherubim," the man went in and stood beside a wheel.

I'm no so much going to write particularly about the verse today as I am going to write my thoughts.  There are moments in life where things seem very unfair.  Moments where things see to be against you. There are moments when you question all that you have done in what you consider faithfulness. Moments where you pause and questions your ability to discern and follow God's will. I'm having such moments. I'm questioning all that I know or believe I have done to follow God's will.  I am questioning whether or not I am where God intends me to be at this very moment and whether or not I am doing what He wants me to be doing. It's not fun.  It's scary. It's frustrating. It's unsettling. When I seek God's guidance, He is very quiet on all matters. Today I was sent to read in Ezekiel.  Not the most uplifting of chapters, however, God used His Word to remind me of His sovereignty. God is in charge and He is in control.  Yes, I have made decisions and have attempted to live out His will for my life, but ultimately He is in control. He will make my paths straight. He will make the rough patches smooth. All I'm asking Him for today is a tidbit of what is going on, a little knowledge of what's to come.  I believe in His sovereignty. I trust in His faithfulness. I live in His grace. Today I seek His mercy in my frustration. Thanks for reading.
