This an email that my oldest sister sent to my older sister who is having a mid-life crisis. Although it wasn't meant for me, it blessed me beyond belief. My spirit is leading me to share it here because is needing a Word from God about a situation in their life. 
So you’re at a crossroads in your life? Me too and I've been here many times before. So what makes this time different?
I've bargained. I've rebelled. I've lied. I've hid. And I've run.
So I'll tell you what I already know. Nobody can get you to there but JESUS.
That's why he's the AUTHOR of change.
Where is there? FULFILLED! Will it be fun? GOT TO BE MORE FUN THAN WHAT I'M HAVING NOW!!! No more fantasies for me. If I were to tell most folks what God is saying to me, they would probably not take me seriously. Why?
1) Because only God can make it happen.
2) I have to TRUST God to make it happen. That means I have to take ME and GOD seriously. In the end, I'm looking for God's approval.
3) I have to follow him even if I don't know where he's taking me. Not even FEAR is going to keep me from being a VESSEL that God can use.
4) I'm not interested in what I feel anymore. That hasn't worked so far. God's vision for my life is BIGGER than me. I finally have ENOUGH faith in him to BELIEVE him. And to do the impossible. Impossible for me but NOT for JESUS!
I want REAL love. I want a REAL life experience. I want REAL joy. REAL peace. I want EVERYTHING GOD says is already MINE. The closer I am to him and his will. The more joy I feel. The further away, the more confused and sad I feel. When I trust him and not me, I feel confident. When I move without him, I feel hopeless.
God is not the enemy. I am. This doesn't mean do what I want. It means that I trust God to make the decisions. I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. And who knows me better. ME or GOD.
I'm not telling you what I think you should do. I'm not telling you your decisions are right or wrong. I'm not God. When I take a step, I want to SEE God nod his head, YES! YOUR BLESSING IS WAITING! Re-visit the passion you felt as child, teen or 20-something. What did you want to do that the Devil said you couldn't do. I guarantee you God didn't kill your dreams. They can live but only if God breathes life into them.
Once I admitted to God that I didn't know what I was doing. HE SHOWED ME THE WAY. Finally after 40 years, I know why I always felt different. Not bad different. I just see things differently. It's not that I don't believe that God can equip me to have the career or life I desire. The truth was I didn't TRUST him. If I don't trust God, then I'm saying that the world is bigger than HE IS! I understand why the DEVIL was able to get his way. NO MORE! I'm not trying to set the world on fire. I'm trying to light a fire under the world through God. And the gifts He gave me.
I'm trusting God to order my steps this year. The vision He has for my life will take root. I'm not trusting my feelings. I'm trusting GOD!
Devil, you can't live here NO MO! [size=large]MY GOD IS BIGGER THANK YOU! [/size]
All I can say is: Been there. Done that. Not going back. God willing!
The saying may be tired but it's so true.
