The Cul-de-Sac

For some time it seemed that my life was in a negative cycle. I mean, certain negative things would happen that I had no control over.

Some dear friends of mine referred to this cycle as a cul-de-sac. Theirs was an accurate analogy. I would go down a road, thinking I was making progress, only to find that I was once again going around that same circle.

I determined to seek God diligently. I wanted out of this cycle! And at first, I was alarmed as one such event happened again. But, because of my time spent seeking God, I found myself responding differently! How wonderful to know that I don't have to be a slave to circumstances.
