Have you ever seen a person going down a wrong path and you wanted to tell them but you couldn't because your hands are tied? That's where I am right now. I have this certain person in my life who made a really poor decision and although I can't prove it, I just know that they are only getting themselves in deeper and deeper, and they may even eventually lose everything when God brings judgement. That's scary! I wish I could help, but you can't help a person who doesn't want to be helped...and I suppose in this case watching them fall on their butt is going to be their only way back to redemption..if they even allow God that.
God has placed some crazy dreams in me for 2010. Things that at this current time, I am not capable of doing on my own. Things that will require relying on God, and when looking back all I will be able to say is "wow, look what the Lord has done!" Pastor Todd preached on Sunday morning about having a vision..and then he used my scripture I've been holding onto for quite some time now..."And then God answered: "Write this. Write what you see. Write it out in big block letters so that it can be read on the run. This vision-message is a witness pointing to what's coming. It aches for the coming-it can hardly wait! And it doesn't lie. If it seems slow in coming, wait. It's on its way. It will come right on time."" - Habakkuk 2:2-3 The Message Bible Looking at where I've been, where I am now, and where I am going...all I can say is that God has surely been at work in my life, and I am so excited to see how it all turns out. Too bad I can't say that about my friend...but then again, God gave us free will for a reason right?
Anyway, here's to the future!
