I asked God, “What’s the difference between red flags and dry bones…I asked him how to discern one from the other, as sometimes a shut door, a no, or a “red flag” could actually be a dry bone.
His response was I cannot discern my way through everything in life; that is the point of faith. Faith is in the not knowing. He told me it is more important to change my perspective on the aspect of “whether or not” attitude. (fiery furnace)
Then he directed me to Ecclesiastes chapter 9, the entire chapter 9. It truly blessed me. I’ve been really trying to figure out the whole marriage thing and really my life as a whole right now, and I asked him this question today, and he gave it to me. I’m so happy because I’ve been really beating myself up on whether or not this or that. I’m going to keep this lesson in my heart and bless everyone I know with it because it totally set me free.
Knowing or not knowing how something is going to work out doesn’t control or change the fate of anything; it’s all in trusting he’s good, no matter the outcome.
