| Can You See His Hand? |
|
| |
I had trouble falling asleep last night. Work was intense so I had a hard time winding down from that. Not to mention that I am in the midst of a major transition time in my life -- becoming "officially" single (although I've been alone for over 2 years) -- making the decision to keep Timothy at home rather than pre K -- etc.
As I often do, I laid there and tried to see where God is in all of this. Sometimes I am able to see right off. Sometimes it's not so clear in the present.
However, one thing I can always do is to look back over my life and see where His hand has been. It's amazing to do that. Just to even look back to yesterday and see what He did for me in just small ways -- then of course there are the huge things in the past. Many of those times, when I was in the middle of that situation, I could not see His hand like I can see it now. It was there the whole time -- I just couldn't see it at the time.
When I remember those times, it strengthens me to continue on. I know His hand is on my life right now - and even in the times when I can't see it. I remember a line to a song that says, "When you cannot see His hand, trust His heart." It makes trusting His heart so much easier when you truly trust Him. He has definitely earned our trust and has proven over and over that He will not forsake us.
