Tonight, at Adoration... I was praying for some inspiration.
A few weeks ago I felt VERY "ON FIRE." I walked around in a seemingly constant state of spiritual inspiration... lately, I feel like I am wandering aimlessly.
So I prayed. Then my wife said something to me, and I said something back. Honestly, I don't even remember what it was about, but she said: "God gives us what we need, not what we want."
That struck me. It snapped me back into an on-fire sort of attitude. I know exactly what is getting at me... and I even have a solution to the "problem." Yet, until tonight, I was so worried that I was alone and was left un-aided. How foolish could I be?
God has prepared for me everything that I need... and it is just up to me whether or not I want to seize that which is mine, or protest because it isn't what "I think is best."I have tried everything I can think of to "right the ship" in my heart and mind about things, to no avail. Finally, my wife said a simple little thing to me... and VOILA! It all became clear to me.
It really is the little things...
