Who's the Boss?


         

  Maybe it’s just me, but it seems like sometimes we can get all wound up on a busy                  day and forget to wait for direction from the Lord—we may jump in without listening          for direction and get in His way with our own idea. Then we remember and promise              to stop and listen before offering our own solution to a small problem (of course the                big ones we’ll save for the Savior, right? That’s what we call him.)

  For some reason it helps me to remember my place in the scheme of things to picture            myself as a suit of clothes Jesus wears when He goes about His day. He opens his                    closet and decides I should work well for today’s projects. He mentions the list of                    errands we will do together that day. Maybe it sounds stressful or difficult and I                      squirm in discomfort, I was hoping for a day of fun—maybe a picnic or concert                      in the park. I open my mouth to complain; then stop! 

  Does the suit drive the car and determine the day or does the Owner who wears the suit?
