Without Faith

So, i was on the way to zachary to play volleyball with some friends and was going off of memory from like a month or so ago. It was kinda easy at first until i didnt know what neighborhood to turn into. i ended up going all the way down the wrong road and then going way down this other road that had barely any houses. im just glad it wasnt at night..
but finally i turned on the right now that i didnt know at the time and i was kinda getting scared at that point. I saw the road and was like why not, maybe it does sound familiar because im pretty much desperate anyway. Then i prayed that God would show me where to go...about 10 sec later i see it on the right...i sighed with relief.

i was thinking about how our lives are often the same. We try our best to go the way we think we know but it ends up being the wrong way. You begin to listen to the voice of God and turn in the direction with faith and maybe a little brokeness.
Sometimes it takes a few wrong turns, but eventually you are going to get there, but only if you have faith. Because this life requires faith, especially when you have no idea where you are going. He will lead us, even though it might be a little scarey, because i was definately getting scared.

Im even kinda scared right now because i know WHERE i want to go, but how do i get there is the question. my answer to that is simple, have faith and believe He really will lead me into His promises. Without faith it truly is impossible to please God...
im seeing more and more that i need to have more faith in the God of the universe. And im not even talking about finding the right house, i think there is obviously a bigger picture there. i hope im never too stubborn to finally ask God for direction...i bet that could have saved me a lot of time and getting lost.
