Funny, if you had asked me two days ago amidst my frustration if it was all going to turn around, I probably would have said “not right now”. It’s good to put it all out there, I know that God already knows what I need, but sometimes I need to say it out loud. I did, and here are a few results.
One of the things frustrating me got fixed. There was much rejoicing in my house….a happy dance was done. The other thing that needs to be fixed is still…..coming. No progress except to say- not yet. The last thing, the one that is kinda in my control, is well, status quo. Not better, not worse. Steady. I’ll take it.
One (or two) days makes a difference. The situation and the perspective changes. I wondered a few days ago what the “lesson” is in everything going on right now. Ask. That’s the lesson. I evidently need lots of practice with asking because God is giving me lots of opportunities.
I want to tell you that I can “do it all on my own”. The truth is, I can’t, and neither can you. We aren’t meant to. We are meant to lean on those around us, and more importantly turn to God when we need something. That doesn’t mean that it will happen overnight or even this week, but something will happen.
My pearl of wisdom is not new. Ask and you shall receive. Yes, all in God’s time, not mine. Whatever is happening in your life right now, tell God all about it, and continue to do so until you get an answer.
