'OUT OF PLACE'

'Out of Place'
In 2010, here in New Zealand, I was playing one of the very important games of the season for my football club when I dislocated my left knee.
My kneecap went out of place. I fell down in excruciating pain.
I had never experienced anything like it. My teammates and the opposing team felt really sorry for me.
It took the assistance of one of the players who was a healthcare professional to help put it back in place.
Why am I sharing this with you?
Let me start by asking you a question: have you ever experienced the pain of a dislocated joint before?
If you haven't, I pray you don't. It's scarily painful and very miserable.
This is exactly how the life of someone who is "out of place" when it comes to God's purpose for their lives.
This is why such a person would run from pillar to post, doing trial and error and nothing would work.
Trying to do 'your own thing' instead of being in the will of God for your life is very hard!
And you can either do life your way or God's well. I tell you, God's way is the easy way. Your own way or people's way for you is the hard way!
While God gives us a choice, we must choose His will if we want to live fulfilled and most importantly live for Him.
No wonder the Bible says, "Many are the plans in a person's heart, but it is the Lord's purpose that prevails" [Proverbs 19:21]
Anytime you try to do things you own way, please remember the story of Jonah! Learn from him and don't do it!
Follow God's purpose for your life and see how fulfilling your life becomes.
I believe in you.
