A messy life

I passed a local church sign today, and it flashed a message: "Have you made a mess of your life?"

I looked at my wedding ring and thought how I'm married, am about to buy a house and thought - "I think I've done pretty well. I'm where I always imagined I would be."

Then I added, "Thank the Lord."

I guess that's what the sign was suggesting. Without my faith, without having a reason to do what's right, where would I be?

If I did everything I wanted and that sounded fun, I probably would have made a mess of my life. Thank the lord that when he is in control life is just how it should be.
