716) Cocoonish

Posted by: carmenL on: October 11, 2009

Of late, I feel cocoonish.  I see the world pass by, people going places, getting permanent jobs, getting into relationships, etc and I feel status quo.  I know I’m getting somewhere but I just don’t know where more like, I feel underachieved.

What do I need?  What do I have to do?

What is it that I want?

Until the time comes, I wouldn’t know.  I just know I can hang on to this:-

But in the end, does it really make a difference what anyone does? I’ve had a good look at what God has given us to do—busywork, mostly. True, God made everything beautiful in itself and in its time—but he’s left us in the dark, so we can never know what God is up to, whether he’s coming or going. I’ve decided that there’s nothing better to do than go ahead and have a good time and get the most we can out of life. That’s it—eat, drink, and make the most of your job. It’s God’s gift.

Ecclesiastes 3:9-13 (The Message)

I think this translation of the Bible is awesome.  Was just going through biblegateway.com to get an appropriate translation and got to this…doesn’t answer the whys and whats but tells me to just go with the flow and to seize the moments that God has placed in my life.
