Examining our trajectories

Hey everyone (at least those who are still around). I've been on a little break, dealing with some mental/spiritual things. I think I'm on the "up-road".

I'm re-reading Kyle Lake's book, Re-Understanding Prayer. This little statement caused me to want to blog again this morning/afternoon:

...I examined the trajectory of my life and didn't like where it was headed.

That's an interesting thought...examining the trajectory of our lives. If we look at where we are now we can get a really good idea of where we're going down the road. Of course this doesn't always mean location but more about character, as a follower of Christ, dad, employee, etc.

I'd invite you to think about examining the trajectory of your life this morning, as I have been as well. The most incredible thing can occur if we find that our trajectory is not really in line with our character as Christ followers. In His unlimited grace and mercy, God is able to help us re-orient ourselves. We just have to admit that we're off course, ask for His help to make all of the necessary changes to get back on track, and then begin the process of re-aligning our lives with the character of Christ.
