So this morning I was meditating on the idea of I’m exactly where I am supposed to be, right here, right now. I’ve often felt like once I got “there” things would be ok.

- Make a decision to change your way of living. And if you are not sure how, ask God. James 1:5 in the Message says, “If you don’t know what you’re doing, pray to the Father. He loves to help.
