After writing this blog for many years, I did something different this summer… nothing! I decided to take the summer off from blogging, a rest, a refresh! The change has been good for me, no concerns and reminders to post, time to reflect without words, breathing room for my soul. Sometimes, just breathing is what the soul needs! Enjoy this new season!!
Kinlaw goes on to point out that these opportunities do not come from our own making, rather "you must let [God] give you the opportunities and move you into new places." Why is it that we complain about the smallness of our lives, the smallness of the moments? When does our complacency allow us to be content with our smallness? How often do we go in search of new places and opportunities by ourselves? Do we seek God's will for our moments or charge ahead, desperate to create our own?
These are questions that wrestle with my mind and will. The many possibilities can create conflict for me, and other times, the waiting stagnates my willingness. If these words are true, that God desires to put [me] in places of which [I] have only dreamed, dare I not wait with Him? Likewise, if I must let God provide the opportunities and move me to these new places, dare I not trust His leading? I must trust Him absolutely! ~dho
God, the One and Only - I'll wait as long as He says.
Everything I need comes from Him,
He's solid rock under my feet,
breathing room for my soul.
. . . So trust Him absolutely.
Psalm 62:1-2,8 The Message
