Turning Point

Journal entry for 5/21/2047,

It’s been three weeks since the plane crash – I haven’t seen a single person since then. I’ve been constantly on the move, trying to find my way out of this labyrinth of a forest but there seems to be no end to the twisted mess that lays between me and civilization.

When I decided to look for adventure, I never imagined that this would be the kind of adventure I’d get. I’ve finally learned what it means that “nobody panics when things go according to plan.” A simple plane trip East, and my plans – my life, really – were changed drastically.

“A famous explored once said that the extraordinary is in what we do, not who we are.”

–Levi Schnog

Trust in the Lord…

I was in my room the other day and was just looking around when a framed picture, that has hung in my room ever since I moved into the room, caught my eye. It’s a picture of three cowboys riding their horses over some rough terrain. Written in the corner of the picture is Proverbs 3:5, 6 – “Trust in the LORD with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths.” (NKJV)

I was reminded that no matter how much planning I do for my life, it’s all in vain unless I trust the Lord to direct my life. If I’m trusting Him, then my plans will be the same His plans – that being the case, there’s no need to worry about it.
