Starbucks
Well, I am here at Starbucks using the holy grail of mugs, every time I bring it in to a Starbucks they give me as much free coffee as I want. What am I doing at Starbucks…. pondering the meaning of life of course. Or more exactly the meaning of my life. This is the year that I hit the big 30. The undeniable end of youth, not that I plan on going to a retirement community any time soon but I don’t really fit in with the 20 something’s anymore.
As I grew up I heard many messages on the will God. Here I am 15 years removed from teen camp and the truth of that message sticks out to me today “If you wan’t to be in the will of God, brush your teeth”. Could it really be that simple, yes. Here is what the bible tells us about the will of God. “Ecclesiastes 3:11 He (God) hath made every thing beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that No man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end.” God has given very few people the gift of prophecy and chances are you have not been given that gift. I know I have not been given that gift. So just to recap on the will of God “No MAN can find out the work that God maketh”. Basically to be in the will of God you do not need to know God’s Master plan. Just believe by faith that God has one for you. You don’t need to know what 2012 hold, you don’t need to know were you will be working one year from today, you don’t need to know where you will even live.
In other words, do what you know you should be doing today. (AKA brush your teeth) Follow God’s word and you will be in God’s will.
