The Signs

Something has been missing. I have searching for something: a move within my career, fine-tuning my marriage or adding onto my family, or is it more "things" I need to satisfy my quest in this journey through life. The signs have all pointed me to enhance a relationship with someone I barely know. So I seek him out...

Slip Slidin' Away Lyrics - Paul Simon

"God only knows
God makes his plan
The information's unavailable
To the mortal man
We're working our jobs
Collect our pay
Believe we're gliding down the highway
When in fact we're slip slidin' away"


This is what I have been doing- slidin' away; the anxieties of daily life have caught up with me. Plus I have the modern world telling me the will of God is outside our reach; you can't know it. 

But I know that I am landing on what God's will is of and for me. I know God wants to give us more. He turns to me, "Whatever plan you can come up with yourself- I have a bigger plan."
Do I sit down in the classroom of silence and listen to him? This is what has been missing- solitude, stillness, and silence. God wants me to be the best version of MYSELF. I am no longer to be a second version of something or someone else. God has placed on this earth to be the best version of myself.  Because I know this fundamental principle, now everything is making sense.

Throughout this 2013 year; I am going to become the best version of myself and in solitude, stillness, and silence. My heart will not become drowsy of the anxiety of daily life. Please walk with me on my journey through God's dream for me. Thank you Matthew Kelly as your words will walk me down this path.
