Where are you looking now?

Just received a forwarded e-mail that simply says the following two sentences: 'When You're Down to Nothing, God's up to Something’.
'Worry looks around, sorry looks back, Faith looks up.'
Which simply leads me to ask, who is leading your life now, and where are you currently looking now”? Is it you who has been trying to set the direction and pace of your Life? Or have you been letting God direct and Guide You in the direction and areas that He would have you Go?
Part of the answer to this will be answered by the direction that you are currently looking in.
If God is in control, then you will be looking up in faith and moving only where and when and as fast as God would have you go. If you are looking around, then God is not only not guiding you, but you are allowing the world to distract you into a different and wrong direction. If you are looking Back, then you are allowing yourself to be tempted to draw back into what now seems safe but wasn’t when you were in it before, and won’t be again, even if you do allow yourself to slide back there.
So if you are down to nothing today or feel that your life has no direction, purpose or goal, don’t look around or even backwards, but look up to God in faith and allow Him to take you forward and on to not just something, but something wonderful. For when you are down to nothing, God is up to something. And we all know that that something is something wonderful. Even too wonderful to describe here!
