Lost!

it was a good weekend, Kasey and Theresa got married..and thus ends the 5 week wedding marathon.. there is alot of love going on around here. Today is my 26th birthday, and i get to spend it at work. i am getting a bad attitude about work , i know of a book i need to read. about how working is serving God. But when you know you are meant for things far greater than fixing cell phones, but you feel like you don't know where to place your foot for the next step, it is very frustrating. Pastor this morning talked out of Genises 21, about Ishmael and his mother the bondservant. Being thrown to the wilderness by abraham and his wife under the promise of God that He would take care of theem. and Abraham had enough faith to give them a loaf of bread and a skin full of water and send them on their way trusting God would take care of them.. The wilderness was Hot and they used the water and they ate the bread, and Ishmael(who was about 16-18) went down first. and his mother drug him up under a bush to die. then she went away from him and crawled up under another bush herself , so that she could die.. All hope was lost and it was past the point of fixing it yourself. I feel like i have been wandering in that wilderness for a while now. and i am running out of food and water... I need God to Open my eyes as he did to ishmael's mother and let me see the provision that is right in front of me.. because that is what happened. Ismael cried out to God. God spoke to them and then he Opened her eyes from the spiritual blindness. and she could see the Well of water that was right in front of her.

I am Blind, Oh Lord Be my Sight. I am sinking, Oh Lord plant my feet on You. I am Wondering in the wilderness of Life, Oh Lord, Guide my steps.
