Lost

Feel lost? There are many times that we all feel lost and not really sure of where we are going or what we are doing. We doubt and question ourselves about the choices we have made and the choices that we will make. We see life in much the same way that we drive to a place that we have never been before. We make sure that we all the directions and will be able to make all the right choices along the way. This is the way that we think we can insure that we will not get lost. However, even in this world of advanced technology where people have GPS navigators and the internet has Map Quest, we still get lost on trips that we take. Sometimes the map is wrong, and not up to date. Sometimes we do not want to go the way that the directions are taking us. This world is so big, and constantly changing that it is so hard to make sure maps are up to date and the directions are "right."
We feel this way in life sometimes too! The world is so big, there are so many people with problems, God is so big with so much to know there is no way that I can be sure of where I am going in life and there is no way to really trust in God. We are lost. Do we turn this way or that? Do we make this decision or that one? If I make that one I will be lost, God will not be there, we tell ourselves. Scripture reminds us of this one thing -

God's love is meteoric, his loyalty astronomic, His purpose titanic, his verdicts oceanic. Yet in his largeness nothing gets lost; Not a man, not a mouse, slips through the cracks.
Psalms 36:5-6
God is huge! Even though God is huge nothing gets lost! God is so huge nothing can get lost! You cannot get lost. You only think you are. God is right here right now, that is how huge our Creator is. God can always keep up with the times, the changes, and care for us. We are lost when we believe we are seperate from God, when we do not recgonize that God is huge and right here, right now! Remember today of the times when God showed you this - that God is right there, right now. Remember to realize this, believe it, know it. There is no "cracks" to slip through with God.
Namaste'
