Who's the Pilot of Your life?

     Have you ever felt like death ran you over? You feel so awful, your body hurts so much that you just can't imagine anything worse. You would welcome anything just for the pain to go away. Sad part is you feel this way all because of a cold. All because the medicine you are taking spiked your blood pressure setting off a cataclysmic event causing you to feel worse than before.
     A friend later tells you that the medicine is causing you to feel worse and tells you to try something else. You listen and within a day, life is looking beautiful and wonderful again all because you accepted something new in your life. If you would have known it was as simple as taking the blue pill vs the red pill, you would have chosen the other one some time ago. Our spiritual life is really just that simple too. The red pill or the blue pill. Good or evil, heaven or hell, God or the devil. Just like the right medicine can perk you up, so can the power of God and His never-ending affection.
     We all too often look for the easy answer when problems arise, typically assuming the norm, forgetting how it turned out before. The truth of the matter is that the most obvious answer is usually the easiest answer, and that is letting go and just turning it over to God. You see, He has this uncanny ability to overcome death, whether it is physical or spiritual. So on that note, how about you test drive God for a change and let Him become the Pilot of Your life.
