What Is Your Life The Answer To?

Have you ever reached a place in your life when you have just seemed unsettled?
Its not that things are going to pieces... in fact, on the outside it would seem like things have never been better. Yet inside of you is an uneasiness, a distress.
We begin to ask questions about the meaning of it all.
We find ourselves dissatisfied.

Its at this point that many seem to wonder into all sorts of crazy paths.
We begin to blame those in our relationships, our jobs, our friends, our church... and we feel the need to move on in search of easing this restlessness.
We even are plagued by guilt for having these feelings.

We begin to search for answers...

But perhaps what we really need is not an answer but rather a new question! A new question that we can be the answer to!
Perhaps feeling stuck, frustrated, discontent, etc does not mean that you have lost the meaning in your life... but rather that you have outlived one question and need to find the next.

If you are experiencing the uncomfortable feelings described above, consider the possibility that your previous season is coming to an end and that the discomfort is God's way of propelling you to find the next question for your life to be an answer to.


What have been your experiences?
How have you felt during these times?
What question is your life currently an answer to?

I look forward to your thoughts!

Prepare To Prosper - Part 4

As you have journeyed with me through this series, you may have enthusiastically applied the principal that Joyce Meyer has taught in her book called Prepare To Prosper.
Perhaps you have already dialed into your on-line banking or have run to check your post box to see if any checks have come in...

Let me encourage you with another short extract from the book:
"The farmer maintains a specific routine in caring for the seed he has planted until his harvest comes. He is patient about it. He does not expect to plant the seed and have it produce a harvest the next day. Nor does he plant it, walk away from it, and expect to do nothing else to provide for its care. He continues to water it, pull weeds and make sure it gets plenty of sunshine."
(The emphasis was mine)

Jas 5:7 ESV (7) Be patient, therefore, brothers, until the coming of the Lord. See how the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, being patient about it, until it receives the early and the late rains.


How do we know when we just plain need to be patient and when we need to bash down the doors of heaven?

How long do seasons last?

What is the purpose of seasons?


I look forward to hearing your thoughts
