And... we're back on track...
Even having driven that SAME road a thousand times, knowing EVERY road mark and every turn... I would get so nervous to drive in the fog. Why? Because the fog hides things, mainly CARS :) When you can't see in front of you, you have no idea if there is a car there and how fast it is or isn't going. It feels like you are driving a lethal weapon with a blindfold tied tightly around your eyes! I'm not a fan!
On the other hand, I LOVE looking at the fog!!! It's beautiful and mysterious IF I'm sitting still, staring at it from the comfort of my home! God designed the most gorgeous foggy day for my son's wedding and it was breathtakingly beautiful - while we were looking at it. Being still... not driving!!!
This morning I got up and my sweet coffee-bringing husband softly says "it's foggy out". It immediately made my head spin. Feeling as though the weather had caught up with me. Somehow I feel like I've been "driving" in the fog for quite a while. Just moving forward blindly! Praying for whatever is in my way because... I can't see a darn thing!!! As I sip on my coffee and try to wipe the sleep from my eyes, God began to speak to my soul "trust me, I can see!".
Yes God, I KNOW this, I've reassured many people of this MANY times, but I don't FEEL this truth! Here's where faith takes over. Faith has to drive. Corrie ten Boom said, "Faith is the radar that shines through the fog".
Faith over Feeling
This journey once again looks nothing like we thought it would. We find ourselves in unknown territory, driving through the fog. I know we're not alone...
Ok my friends, we can do this!!! Let faith take over, take that next step because...
The.
Fog.
Will.
Clear.
But for now, just for this moment, maybe God wants you to sit and breathe. Take a minute and let the fog lift.
If it doesn't then go ahead and step forward, slowly :)
