I spoke with a few friends today about our current situation in life. I have mentioned it a few times to close friends, and even some not-so-close friends. And on the rare occasion, have hinted at some things here on the blog page. The reason for such nebulous terminology and cryptic phrases? I don’t have a clue what I’m talking about!!! 🙂
We do know that we need a break from our music. We are in the process of reducing the schedule a bit – not completely, and not forever at this point. Just the thought of that is a welcome break. But the schedule remains full with a multitude of web-clients almost banging down my door (I guess I do that stuff pretty well, as people are eager for my services there) and there are several other fairly sizeable tasks that require my attention. There is no lack of busyness.
But in all of this, there is no answer. I want an answer. A solution. I want to know what changes lie in store. God knows, doesn’t he? Why won’t he show me??? And my friends related their stories of waiting on Him. A common phrase in the Bible that you sometimes wish would just remain there, on those pages. But it does not. He does not. He allows us to go through times when we see less, and trust more. Or, at least we need to.
At the moment, our future – at least our immediate future – seems cloudy. I don’t like it one bit. But today, God has reminded me through some friends, and various other means of getting through to me that He is leading this show…. not me. That I sure can have peace – as long as I am willing to follow Him.
I will come out on the other side mostly unscathed. But for now… we wait… and pretend the outcome is uncertain and complain and flail against the air, trying to regain some semblance of control… though anything I thought I had was merely an illusion.
I feel like I know the answers. Now I must begin to put them into practice.
And wait.
