Can't Get Away

Whether you're Moses demanding to God that you're not capable of speaking well enough(Exodus 6:28-7:5),
Or you're Jonah running away from preaching the truth to a city(Jonah 1: 1-3),
Or even if you're Balaam, and God has to make a donkey talk to you in order for you to see the truth(Numbers 22:21-41),
You can't get away from Him.

Each of these men, in their own ways, were going against what God had called them to do.
But the funny thing is, with God, you can't get away. You may try to hide, or run, or deny the truth, but God won't let you get around it.

Quite honestly, I am so glad that we can't get away from Him. We can always be found by Him.
There definitely have been some times when I wish it didn't have to be God 's way, but that's only because I didn't understand what He was doing, and because I thought my way was better. I'm learning that in the end, it's me who's wrong, not God. God's plan always turns out better than mine!

Is there something in your life that you've been running away from? Is there something you've been called to do but have been putting it off because of fear? Lack of trust in God? Simply because you disagree?

Well, my friend, let me just tell you, you can't get away from Him... so stop trying. :)

"Many are the plans in a man's heart, but it is the LORD's purpose that prevails."
Proverbs 19:21
