The Connector

I’m writing on Face Book and a young man comes on and we begin to chat about this or that. Next thing you know we’re headed to coffee to dig into the deeper things of God.

I go swim at a hydro pool, talk about it on Face Book, the next thing I know I’m a friend with a guy who builds pools and we’re chatting it up on Face Book.

God is into making connections. He loves to put people in our lives unexpectedly. It is almost as if it’s a test to see how much we can truly love other people.

When we are open to it, and allow it to just happen life gets very interesting. If we resist and instead retreat to our comfort zone life becomes stagnant, stale and downright boring.

Right now, as you get up out of bed, God is already planning your day. He’s working out possible connections for you. The question is will you live with expectancy or plan your day so perfectly that you get everything done on your list and miss His?

I’m an expert at this topic because I miss a lot due to my planning. Fortunately I have a God who gets in my way.

So, take your shower, brush your teeth (please) and leave a few holes in your schedule today. I’m telling you, something is going to happen if you do.
