The Arrow

Have you missed the mark? have you wandered aimlessly not knowing where you were going or what you are doing? Do you have a goal or a destination in mind? Me too !

Let me take a minute to ask you have you ever been able to really trust? Scary thought huh! If you have been around more than a few minutes you have been let down and betrayed.

Let me help you out; you no longer have to wander or wonder, God has a plan for your life and you can trust completely in him he has sent his only son to die on the cross as a
sacrifice for the sins of man, If you believe and fully trust in him and commit to a personal relationship with him you will be saved for all eternity. Pretty sweet deal right , no you don't have to fill out an application to qualify or have the right family heritage it yours a free gift to all man kind.

Now back to being the arrow, have you ever seen an archer who could really shoot an arrow right where he wanted? It is an amazing thing the flight of the arrow is
controlled by the balance of the archer "God" who created it "Genesis 1:27" it is aimed at a specific target and through the power "The Holy Spirit" stored in the bow it is propeled toward a target. but sometimes after the arrow "You" is created time and aging it takes on a different angle and it doesn't fly straight anymore so the archer "God"must take on the task of heating and bending it to straighten it so it will hit the exact spot the archer "God" desires.

If you are struggling in areas of your life it is because you have become bent and the archer "God" is trying to straighten you out, you are no longer hitting where he is aiming for you to be and he must work on you to
achieve the purpose for which he created you.

You were designed by God to do a specific task and he has given you everything you need to do it, but you must be willing to allow him to use you. As we go into this journey together I hope we can learn together what that purpose is and how to better allow him to use us.
