Improv in your life

Hello to my 2 faithful followers...I finally have something to write about.
I went to an Improv show last night on campus and it got me thinking. In an Improv show the players don't have a script or memorized movements. They have to rely on each other to keep the story moving. Our lives are kind of like an Improv show. We always try to plan every minute of our lives and we want to know exactly what's going to happen all the time. Well, we can never know for sure everything that will happen to us, so sometimes we have to improvise. God is our partner in this Improv show of life and we have to rely on Him when things go awry. We have to trust that He is going to put things back in order and keep the show going.
Another thing about Improv I've noticed is that you rarely see a one person Improv show. There is always at least two people, going back and forth, keeping the show moving. If one person falters, the other is there to make things right. Much like this, we cannot do life alone. We need God in our lives to help us through the tough times that we face, the times when we do not know what to say or do next. We need Him to point us in the direction we need to go to continue on with life.
So, live your life like an Improv show and always keep God on stage with you.
