For the love of Christ controls us, because we have concluded this: that one has died for all, therefore all have died; and he died for all, that those who live might no longer live for themselves but for him who for their sake died and was raised.
2Corinthians 5:14-15 ESV
In the preparing for what He calls us to do… we make plans… but He reorders…
Controlled… compelled… by His love… our orderly plans… set in our minds… end up Wind-Blown…
The Spirit leading in a different way… than what you might have thought…
The only way to handle it… is to go with it…
Let Him blow as He may…
Don’t argue…
Do what He says…
It’s His love for others… working in you… to take care of the needs of those around you… rather than sticking tight to your own plan…
Controlled by His love… I often hear myself say to myself… What am I doing…? I don’t have time for this…? but go right on doing… going where He leads…
There just is no other way…
“…The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear its sound, but you do not know where it comes from or where it goes. So it is with everyone who is born of the Spirit.” –Jesus
John 3:8 ESV
