Bird Dog!

OK, so here I am struggling again with doubt about whether or not I am in God's will, and here is a great word from God that He gave me through Matthew (so please excuse the very male/hunting part of it:)

So Matthew says "Have you ever seen a bird dog hunt?"
And Barby says " Um, No I have NEVER seen a bird dog hunt!!!!"
And of course Barby is thinking to herself, here I am pooring my heart out, frustrated, and agrivated, and wanting answers, NOT hunting stories!!!

OK, OK listen

Matthew goes on. Bird dogs are going after birds, but they don't see them, they smell them. When they are on the trail, they zig, and they zag. This is the path that they have to take to get tho their prize. The ziging and zaging is neccessary. They cannot take a straight shot to the bird, because they would lose the sent. Now in the zigging and zagging, they have to be carful not to get caught up in sticker bushes or fall into gopher holes. They follow the path of their nose and they get the bird.

Barby this is you, you know God's will, you know the prize. You want to take the straight and FAST path. But your senses are taking you ziging and zagging, this is God's path. Watch out for the sticker bushes and the gopher holes, but do not doubt that promises/ prize that God has promised, just because you are following your nose instead of you eyes!!!

Wow, I needed that! Thank you Matthew, thank you God!!
