Learning to live...

Learn to live in the uncertainty
these words from my Lord resound
in shouts, roars, whispers....

because He knows me
the one who used to think she likes surprises
yet clings fast to illusions of control

day after day after day
I wrestle, trying to hold
what cannot rest in my hand

here again I stand, here again I fall
here again I surrender
to thoughts and ways higher
to the One Who brushes each stroke of paint
on this picture that is my life

I don't think the way you think. The way you work isn't the way I work. God's Decree. For as the sky soars high above earth, so the way I work surpasses the way you work, and the way I think is beyond the way you think. 
Isaiah 55:8-9 The Message

Uncertainty


This morning, the Lord reminded me of the words He spoke to me yesterday, before I knew of the storms that would be crossing our path later in the day:

Learn to live in the uncertainty. 
Trust Me and Me only.

So today, I set my concerns about vehicle breakdowns and other financial obstacles into His hands and lean into the stillness that only He can provide.
