Whenever I look at my life ( or others close to me) I always wonder where I would be if I had taking other choices in life. I sit back and wonder, why I am not married yet or have any children as I watch tons of my friends and a bunch of kids I have coached become parents. I look at the career path I have taken and wonder what life would be like if I had taken that opportunity to go to firefighter school with all expenses paid by City of Miami. These things pass through my mind and take hold of my heart at times. Then it seems like Christ eases his way in and says Anthony, one step at a time. He says no matter what choices you have made on your own, I will guide you back onto the path I created for you. Once you have chosen to become obedient everything will fall into place. Anthony, you have so little faith, thinking of things you desire to happen in your time, when I have them to happen in my “perfect” timing. There is nothing you can do Anthony to change the path I have chosen for you other than to choose your own path. Well, I know I have come to place in my life where I cannot live in the past and do not want my own path anymore. I do, however, pray I would see the difference between following Christ and trying to walk beside him. I need to stop walking beside him because he is my trailblazer. What I have come to understand is that Jesus places people in our life for seasons and how we deal with those people is based in how we follow him. Whenever we look at the ” Big Picture” of life we will always be overwhelmed so we need to take it one step at a time. Jesus tells me that I will be a husband and father soon, but until then, do his will as he places it before me and stop attempting to make things right. He is the only truth and the only right, therefore trust in the Lord with All of Your Heart, Mind, Soul and Strength!! One Love, One King, All Christ!
