Reservations

Why do I not make reservations for things in my life that are good for me, when I shouldn't be having reservations about things that could be detrimental to my future? Hi! My name is Kristen and you may also know me by Nikki. I tend to have reservations for a lot of things that can be a benefit to my future, but I really don't mean to! No really, I don't even notice that I am doing this half of the time.

Have you ever asked yourself why you may be cautious about different things when God has spoken loud and clear to you already. He has told you that there is something he wants you to do, but you ignore every sign and confirmation that he sends your way! Yet when something isn't maybe the best decision you tend to dive into those situations faster. Yes this is me alllllll the time.

Picture this scenario......you called and made reservations for a restaurant for you and a date. You show up before your date gets there so you can get the table on time. You get to the table and you start patiently waiting for him/her to arrive. You start to realize time has gone by and there is no site of your date. Finally you see your date walking into the restaurant, but they decide to go to the bathroom first before they come to the table. Then you see them come out of the bathroom and go to talk to someone else and your waiving trying to get their attention, but they're not seeing you. So you wait as long as you possibly can while your getting annoyed at the same time. Wouldn't it be an awful feeling if your date doesn't even realize you are there, but you've taken the time to make reservations and took time out to sit and wait for them!

Imagine God feeling that way about us? 
He's sitting waiting for us to come to the table and he's trying to get our attention, but we ignore him because we want to make pit stops and everything else before get to him. If I'm sitting and waiting for someone for a long time eventually I would leave and never want to speak to that person again. The good part about this is that God is going to continue to wait for us to recognize that he's there.

 He's going to constantly send signs and wonders our way until he gets our attention, but hopefully it's not too late. God is waiting for you to sit at the table with him so he can go over  his blueprint he has for your life, but he's only going to sit there as long as you want him to.  Sometimes we are waiting for the wrong situations to change when we are missing out on what God is really trying to tell us. Don't lose time making reservations for the wrong things and not making reservations for the right things in your life. Once the right reservations are made everything will come on time and will meet you right where you are at.
