Overthink This

So I have been pondering my own theories. I was nervous that I was going on a rampage of self satisfaction at all costs. This quickly leads to a materialistic view of life and a whole lot of debt. 

This is the exact opposite of another theory I have been fed time and time again. That theory is just wait on the Lord. Indefinitely....

In a moment of clarity, I have come to this conclusion:

Wait – be patient – but also be proactive.
Make your life happen – but be content until it does.

I will piggy back on some wise words given to me recently. God can’t steer a parked car. I have found that once I got moving, God let me know if it’s the right direction. If I am moving and resistance continues to occur, it’s probably a sign that it’s not right. However, you can’t know this until you get out there and try. 

If nothing gets in the way, including His word, it’s probably just fine. Period. God wants us to be happy. Stop thinking and be happy!!
