My legs could ache so much. You know the kind of ache you start to feel when you've been running around ALL day just trying to get things done and always with the next thing to do on your mind. That's the ache I feel right now and that was my day too. Granted it was a good day, but just so gosh darn busy. I laid down for a minute this evening and my legs were throbbing. I guess I just didn't realize how tired I was or how much I needed to rest for a second. And not only give my body a rest but also take a minute and just relax and remind myself in the midst of my "busyness" God has greater plans than that which I know, and it is vital that I put aside my to-do list and sit and commune with Him. I had a great time of communing with Him today, though I was in the car driving from one place to the next, I turned off the music and was able to have a quiet drive as I thought and prayed and listened.
Praise the Lord (PTL!) that He meets us where we are at and that we don't have to put up a front for Him. ("Why you be frontin'?" Right Jen. Oh how I miss Clarence and E.L. Cooper) But Jesus knows me. He knows you. He loves me and He loves you. And He surely knows that I am in process, messing up sometimes (okay probably more than sometimes) but He calls me to take His hand and continue to trust and follow Him on the journey. And what an exciting and glorious journey it is.
Few things in life are CERTAIN. There is so much AMBIGUITY that surrounds our lives at any given moment. As for me, I often have difficulty dealing with the UNKNOWN. This is where FAITH comes in. Having faith that GOD KNOWS and I am simply a VESSEL for Him to use to share the LOVE of Christ with others. I invite you to join me as I navigate through the ambiguity of life and draw closer to God in the PROCESS. DELICIOUS AMBIGUITY is what life is all about.
