Sometimes on this journey I can get pretty discouraged. Almost as if there is this thick dark cloud that follows me around. It blocks my view and I get stuck, I can't see behind me (where I've come from) or ahead of me (where I am going). I really can't see past my circumstances and end up wandering around, wondering, worrying and doubting. I question God and his presence and his concern for lowly me.
A while back, I posted about a song that depicted how I was feeling.
I lift my eyes up
unto the mountains
where does my help come form?
My help comes from you
maker of heaven
Creator of the earth.
So I will wait for you
to come and rescue me
come and give me life
Finally, I am grateful to say that the waiting has paid off. I have been rescued from my worry and doubt. The cloud has been lifted and I have a bright hope for the future. I have been able to look behind me, gain perspective and see God's hand upon me and his presence walking with me. I can look back over the past year and see how God has pieced things together without me even knowing it.
What a relief!
