In a vision I saw a carousel going round and round with the horses of various, bright colors going up and down as the music played in the background.  I asked the Lord what the vision meant, and He said that the circus of life and circumstances are like this carousel.  It seems exciting and fun at first, but it becomes very monotonous and routine.  You can get off of this merry-go-round any time you want to and be about My business.  But, you will have to do so deliberately and refocus your attention.   Acts 17:28a "for in Him we live and move and have our being."
