The other night I had to travel with
Kimberly out to the high school in Rossville. We are in the middle of
competition season and I needed to rehearse a song the girls are doing this
Saturday.
When we left our house at about 5:30
it was already quite foggy. Yup, it is January and we have crazy weather in
Indiana! Last week it was absolutely freezing out... Monday I went outside
without a coat because it was so warm… and tomorrow it will be back in the 20s.
When we were done with the practice we
got in the van to return home. By then the fog was really dense and I drove
much slower to accommodate. When we reached the city limits it was rather eerie
as from the road you could not even see buildings or houses that you knew were
there. Even though I was familiar with the roads and turns, I was glad to pull
into the garage and be done driving in that pea-soup!
Made me think of this season I find
myself in. Tim and I are in a waiting phase as we anticipate God’s direction as
to what is next. There are days that I feel like I am going about in pretty
thick fog.
The wonderful thing about this ride in
the fog is that I am not driving and navigating by myself. I have One who loves
me, knows every curve and turn, and is giving me step by step directions as He
guides me safely through paths that are hard for me to see. I just need to quietly
listen to His voice.
“How gracious He will be when you cry for
help!
As soon as He hears,
He will answer you…
Whether you turn to
the right or to the left,
your ears will hear a
voice behind you, saying
‘This is the way: walk in it’.”
Isaiah 30:19 and 21
