Now what?

According to "Blogger," creating a blog was supposed to be easy. Of course I should have known better. The process might be simple for normal people, but for the technologically challenged among us, it is quite intimidating. I haven't even been able to set up voice mail for my cell phone! Therefore, if this blog looks as though the author doesn't really know what she's doing, please forgive her. She doesn't know yet, but she may learn.

Two thoughts came to mind as a result of this experience. First, sometimes we may start something which looks simple or attractive, only to discover that it is much more complicated or challenging than it appeared initially. Marriage, child-rearing, a career, an advanced degree, an exercise program . . . the Christian walk? Eventually, everything seems to take work.

Second, and more importantly: we don't necessarily know what we are doing or where we are going, but God does. As long as we are going where He wants us to go and doing what He wants us to do, we can let Him worry about the results. He's in control anyway, whether or not we acknowledge this!
