“Why is this happening to me? What am I supposed to do? How am I going to get through this?” I’ve cried these questions so many times. I waited to for a gold embossed, hand delivered, Charleton Heston Moses moment. It didn’t come. I didn’t hear any made for TV soundtracks inspiring me to keep going.
God surprised me anyway. Somehow, in the very quiet moment between my fear and faith, I felt the urge to let it all go. I gave up looking for the rationale for my circumstances. “Okay, Lord, I’ve tried to do it all on my own. Here’s my life, my hopes, my dreams, my fears. Would you please take me and lead me? Would you help me rest in you?”
That’s all that I had to ask. The rest is a story of peace.
