Isn't it comforting that we as humans don't see the whole grand picture when dealing with life? Imagine if we knew how situations were going to turn out, where the solutions were, where the next move was etc... That's not reality, God knows all that and gives us a hint and peek here and there. Not having the amazing picture allows for faith to kick in, and causes faith to kick in. While we might try to take the bull by the horns or call our own shots that's not on, it's not the way it works if you're willing to wait for God's timing. I've often said God's timing is best, we have ours but we don't know the time. As far as our transfer to Oakley/Overton is going we haven't seen the grandiose picture, but we have known that's it been drawn or painted, etched (pick your artistic medium) This is comforting, we don't have to see it all, just a small portion to know that's it's not a picture we could have created. Pieces are falling into place, almost day by day, and our faith continues to grow day by day as well. I trust that as you look at your own life faith grows day by day. Maybe for me it's been this last 3 weeks as I've spoken about Abraham twice and read much about him, it was for the congregations in Elmira and Steinbach, but so much for me and Rebecca. That's all for now, thanks for letting me put some thoughts on the screen.
