Good morning weary friend. I know the road you are traveling feels lonely, exhausting and at times unbearable. Sometimes you are so ready for peace and it feels like God is not answering your plea for help. This week The Lord has been reminding me that often I am more disappointed and disillusioned by the failure of my arrangements than His answers. He is answering, but probably not within the parameters of the controlled, nice, tidy box I frame those answers in. His plans are so much higher than we can imagine, and silence does not mean absence, but very often action. It is in the reticence of our trials that the resurrection is awakening. Just remember, not to put that outcome in a box; God does not fit there. Keep looking up. Take the next right step and remain faithful. I love this quote and hope it encourages you this morning:
The secret is Christ in me, not me in a different set of circumstances.
Elisabeth Elliot, Keep a Quiet Heart
You are loved!
