Good Intentions!!!

I have heard it said that the road to hell in paved with good intentions.   Not sure exactly what that means, but it some small fashion I think that it may refer to our desire to do the right thing.  But due to the circumstances  or  forces within or outside our control, it seems to derail those thoughts.  With that being said, we had a plan, a budget, an idea of how to better organize our finances and to be a better steward of what God has given us.  We have made some drastic changes to accommodate those ends.  Everything was in place to be ready to hit the ground running, right….. WRONG!  Which leads me to sometimes think that no matter how hard I try, things won’t be any different or better for me and my family.  There always seems to be a fly in the ointment or some hiccup to throw things off track.  My friend Todd said it seemed like Murphy’s Law and me were becoming best friends.  I guess I am wondering how many more hoops will I have to jump threw, or how many more times will I have to chase my own tail before I can say it is finished.  I guess there must still be some lesson that I am not fully understanding or willing to embrace that brings me back to what appears to be the same place.  It could be worst,  I could allow myself to get in a funk and bite every body’s head off.  Or I could except this as my lot in life to always get to the Jordan but never cross over.  Or I could continue to fight on and hold on till my break through comes.  So there it is.  Me in real time, not mad, not sad, not glad, still just looking for the light at the end of the tunnel.  Closer now than I was yesterday….. I think?!?!
