I have just been reminded again this week that life is full of surprises and most of the time it is bitter-sweet. A lady came to see me this morning and asked if I could marry her and her fiancee but the only catch is that the ceremony will be in Mauritius and would I be willing to go to Mauritius (all expenses paid) and do the ceremony for them...mm mm let me think about it....yes!!! What a wonderful surprise, I did not wake up this morning even thinking that I will be going to Mauritius to conduct a wedding. Then in my next meeting of the morning my worship pastor told me he was leaving! Again I did not wake up this morning expecting that.
So, life is and always will be a journey which often surprises us. Some surprises are sweet and others...bitter! Are we open to being surprised? Are open to the journey that God wants to take us on or are we so caught up in our schedules and "to-do-lists" that we miss what God wants to do for us, in us, and through us.
