I've found that a major difference between now and when I ran from God is that there is a feeling of destiny now in my life. I don't really understand it. I can't really put into words. But I can't shake it and it seems that the people who are around me and know me can see it more then I can. The truth about my life is that I'm a 30-year-old divorced male who until about 18 months ago was sprinting as fast as he could from God. It seems strange that now here I am in front of keyboard proclaim to have a destiny.
I kind of relate to Superman (though I am far from Superman). In his hometown of Smallville, Clark Kent was just trying to graduate high school and try and figure out who he is and where he needed to go. He knew he wanted to help people but how? He didn't know he was going to be Superman or marry Lois Lane or that Lex Luthor would become his greatest enemy. He just knew he had to move forward. Thats where I am...I don't know who I'm going to marry, I don't know how many children I'm going to have. I don't know how God is going to be using me in 10 years. I don't know anything but hints and clues. I know, like Superman, that I have a destiny. I'm not saying that I'm going to become a larger-then-life hero or anything like that. I just know that God has his hand on my life.
Do you have a sense of destiny?
