Sometimes life throws me a curveball. Things seem to be going well, then all of a sudden, something I think is going in a straight line, all of a sudden curves away from me. I often have difficulties with these times in life. My problem is that I sometimes find it hard to discern if I am getting this curveball because it is Satan picking on me or if it is God letting me know it is time to change course. When I am not in the will of God and I know it, I can easily see the curveball as God's way of telling me I need to change my path. But, when I truly believe I am in the will of God and feel that I am prayerfully following his guide, and I get a curveball, it is hard to know who the pitcher is. Is it God telling me he has something else for me or Satan trying to throw me one high and tight and knock me out of the batter's box?
Right now in my life, I am being thrown a curveball. I pray God's discernment as to whether I need to stay in the batters box or bail out so I am not hit by the pitch.

Scott, I believe that God's will is to honor him no matter what pitches we are receiving. When life throws you a curve it's not up to us to figure out who is pitching it. It's up to us to honor God with our attempts to hit it out of the park. I'm praying for you today and I pray God gives you the wisdom that you need.
Rob, thanks for the comment. That is very good advice when it comes to the curveballs. And, I really appreciate your prayers.
