Some days I want to shout to the high heavens, "The Hell with It!!! Just stop already. Stop waiting for us to get it. Stop waiting for us to be better witnesses of Your Love. Can't you see how we're messing it all up? Can't you see that we continue to flounder. Just stop already. It's too much to deal with. Human relationship are a mess!!! Just bring on the end times won't You?"
Then a still small voice says "Hang on timone! Don't give up! Don't let go of Me! I AM here. Trust that I AM working it out for the GOOD."
And so, that's what I do. TRUST.
Each day as I encounter my mess and other people's mess, I trust the voice of God who says to me that ALL is being work out for GOOD.
Each day I must renew my strength.
Each day I must recommit myself to the Gospel.
Each day I must say YES to God's will and not my own.
Otherwise, the messiness of being a Christian closes in on me and I collapse.
May the peace that surpasses all understanding guide my heart and mind in Christ Jesus.
