Working the angles

   Eugene Peterson wrote a book a number of years ago called, "Working the angles."  It was all about looking at everything and seeking God about all issues of life.  Most of the time if we are honest we do not include God in every aspect of our lives.  We leave the big issues or the emergencies to Him.  The truth is that God wishes to be included in every part of ur lives.  It is the small decisions that can have the profoundest effects on our lives.  For example, you are driving down the road and become involved in a car acccident.  You could become injured or injure someone else.  Driving a car is something we do everyday and most times we do not even think about God when we do it.  Yet in this every day task something could happen that could change our lives.  The other day I was doing some lifting and I put my back out.  This little everyday task became an issue and now I am seeking God's healing and resting my back.  My exhortation today is to include God in every aspect of your life, the big and the small.  Let Him guide you.  Prov 3:5-6, reminds us to trust the Lord with all our heart and not to lean on our own understanding but in all ways acknowledge Him and He will direct our paths.  Let this psaage be your testimony today.
