It's only just begun...

I haven’t done this in a while, but tonight I read a blog and it really spurred me to start writing again. Hopefully this is the first of many blogs that will highlight my days traveling on this broken road with God at the wheel. With all my busy-ness, I just hope I can write as often as I plan to. It seems like every week I add something else to my already busy schedule...dangit, that wasn't even what I wanted to make this blog about, there's my ADD kicking in GEEZ. Ok, without further adieu, I give you, my blog…

In the past, I have MAJORLY messed up some relationships because I jumped into them based on my fickle heart. I have a hard time guarding my heart and patiently waiting on God’s best. As hard as it is going to be, I’m going to break this habit, with God’s help of course. The next relationship I have is going to glorify God, not satisfy my selfish eagerness to rid myself of loneliness. So, for now, I think it’s best that I busy myself with serving my Lord instead of “looking for love in all the wrong places.” When the time comes, God will place the right person in my life. I know that it’s not going to be easy, there will be potholes and detours on this road...but with God in the driver's seat, this broken road will be a lot easier on my shocks!

This blog really reminded me of this song, so clichĂ©, but still…

Rascal Flatts
Bless the Broken Road

I set out on a narrow way many years ago

Hoping I would find true love along the broken road
But I got lost a time or two
Wiped my brow and kept pushing through
I couldn't see how every sign pointed straight to you

Every long lost dream led me to where you are
Others who broke my heart they were like northern stars
Pointing me on my way into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you

I think about the years I spent just passing through
I'd like to have the time I lost and give it back to you
But you just smile and take my hand
You've been there you understand
It's all part of a grander plan that is coming true

Every long lost dream led me to where you are
Others who broke my heart they were like northern stars
Pointing me on my way into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you

Now I'm just rolling home
Into my lover's arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you.

It’s going to be tough, but I just have to remember that it’s all in God’s hands and He is going to do more than I could ever ask or imagine! On that note…I’m out like doughnuts at a cop convention!
