Day 144

Here's what I am picturing in my head about my future right now:


Yup, nothing.
Crazy huh?

As a person who finds tremendous delight in thinking about the future, it drives me crazy to have no "scenario" and nothing 'concrete' to look forward to in mind.

Looking forward with plans and imagining possibilities give me energy, hope and purpose. So when I can't do that, I become numb.

Of course God did give me a vision, hope, and wonderful promises for my future. What I am missing right now is the implementation of those vision, hope and promises. What is the plan to carry out His goals? Every tiny opportunity that I thought I should grab, suddenly disappeared. Every hopeful door in front of me, could not be opened. Every wide road was barricaded. And I feel like I am running out of time! Shouldn't I do something?

Then He said this,
“Be still, and know that I am God!
I will be honoured by every nation.
I will be honoured throughout the world.”

Oh how amusing. Every time I am compelled to take action, every time I want to rush things and do something, God tells me to do the opposite. Be still. Be patient. Sit back and relax. Why can't He just tell me what to do?

"Because it is impossible to fix your eyes on the things that you now can't see,
if you are restless and keep moving, Winda."
