Guidance
"Every step which a creature takes, when he has once been created, increases his dependence on the Creator"
So much of our lives is spent trying to figure out its purpose, a reason to live with passion on a day to day basis. This purpose is God. But in many cases finding that purpose or guidance from God requires much stumbling and failing. I think to myself if I can just control, if I can create my own goals, my own purpose in life, then everything will work out. And when things start falling apart, maybe if I just hold on a little longer, things will get better. But it usually doesn't. When everything completely shatters, when I am completely broken, then I reach out to God. And what he does with my shattered pieces is he puts them back together, but in a different way so that my dependence and purpose in life rests entirely in God's hands, not my own. With every step, I learn to rely less and less on me, and more on Him.
