Walk 5

Yet again, I did nothing today.

However I will make a list for today anyways.

Good things of January 5th:

• Having off brand Lucky Charms for breakfast. These were Kroger brand so they were called Marshmallow Treasures, but my favorite is the Walmart kind called Marshmallow Mateys.
• Ordering my books for the spring semester of college.
• Reading Walk 5 in the Daily Walk Bible.
• Getting to Season 5 in The Office. I'm close... wait I just checked, and nevermind. I am not close to being done with season 5. I am in the middle of episode 9 and there's 28 episodes, so yeah...

Yet again, I have waited too late to start a post, and yet again I have nothing insightful to say about today's Bible reading. 

I know that last time I said that, I pulled out something semi-insightful, but this time guys I got nothing.

Today's reading was about Abram (Abraham) and his calling. It was kind of neat to read about how Abram blindly followed God, because he truly believed God would take care of him.

And God did :)

God said for Abram to go, and Abram went. Abram didn't really know where he was going, but he knew that he was following God's will and that everything would turn out alright. 

I guess this teaches us to not doubt God or try to think that we could do it better.

Because honestly, 

we can't.

Compared to God's plan, any of our plans fail miserably.

So like Abram, I want to trust God more. 

And that's saying a lot.

For me, it's always been hard to just blindly do something.

When my parents want me to do something, I always feel the need to have an explanation why.

When I feel that some of the stuff/punishments my dad spouts when I, or one of my siblings, get in trouble, I can't keep my mouth closed and accept the punishment. I always feel the need to point out its ridiculousness and try to refuse it.

I'm always that kid that can't just sit and go with the flow. If my friends and I are trying to make plans to do something, it irritates me to just sit around with a bunch of "maybes".

However, I guess I need to learn that with God, it's different.

I don't know better than Him, and I never will. So, there's no reason for me not to blindly follow, because there's no reason for me to distrust Him.

God will always knows what's best for me, because He's the only one who knows my entire 

- and I mean entire -

life.

He's pretty awesome like that.
