Life's Revelations

Revelations for me happen sometimes out of the blue. Not sure if this is how it is for many but for me it's at times when I least expect anything. God stumps me every time. What I struggle with is following the revelation or looking at what has been set in my heart even if I feel like things should be a different way. Now I know you would say whatever God sets or shows you, you better take heed and follow but for me sometimes I don't and end up back at square one.

What do you do when you know something is not right and you begin to drive yourself crazy over it? What do you do when you have asked for a sign, you have received that sign from God and still want to ignore it? Is that normal? Is that just me?

Why do I try and desire so much for certain things in my life to work out and be a certain way and they don't, and I end up crying or upset. PROBABLY because that's not what God wants/and or has in store for me. It's hard to let go of things that you have been so accustomed to doing or having but I am beginning to understand that it's time.

One of my favorite sayings about this very topic is, "God only closes doors so that he can open up better ones." Sometimes it's hard for me to see that.... I just have to begin to "Let go, let God" work out whatever it is that he wants and has for me. He knows the desires of my heart..
