Crossroads

As I sat at my desk thinking about what I was going to write, I remember that at the begining of this semester, my roommate and I put photos in the room, to kind of give some sort of theme to the way we wanted our room to look. Not thinking about anything at the time, I saw a picture of railroad tracks and decided to put that picture up on the wall that faces me whenever I am at my computer. Now that the semester is coming to an end, I look at the photo and I realize that it was not by chance, but it was a strategy that God had planned out. This semester has been tough in many ways. I kind of look at it as my life crossing into what God has in mind for me. In other words, I feel like it is two lives crossing and a major change happening in my life. this change has not really taken any type of shape that I can see at this point but I feel like this is a point where I have to make a decision to either do what God wants me to do, or keep going in the same circle of life that I have been going through for a while now. I dont know if you have ever been at the point in your life where you knew that you were one decision away from the destiny that God has planned for you since the begining of time.  The picture of this crossroad in my room is amazing. You can clearly see the change in the atmosphere. The gray clouds are there but there are also little hints of blue skies. The shadow over the crossroad is dark, but just on the other side of the tracks is a place of shelter and safety. If I could just get to the place of safety and shelter I know that I will be ok. I cant stand on the tracks any longer. I must make a decision to move. I can either move back into comfort or take a risk and step forward into my destiny. The lights are flashing and the train is on its way. The option of standing still is quickly fading. Where do I go from here.
