…Life is NOW

I am thankful that I trust in you more.  I know you above anyone else can help me, love me, teach me, and guide me.  Nothing, absolutely nothing is too difficult for you.  I need not fear because you are always with me.  No feeling,worry, fear, or doubt is too much FOR YOU.   So, I might as well give them to you!  I know that I really do not want to hold on to them.  I do not like them one bit.  (As I typed that it just reminded me of Dr. Suess!)  YOU Lord are the Solid Rock I stand on and all other ground, such as people’s words, books, even best intentions, are shifting sand compared to you.  I can be content in you through all circumstances.  I see that life is not about waiting for WHEN we can rest, or when there is not conflict but it is about always meeting you right in the middle of all those things.  Life is about every moment, the conversations, the frustrations, everyday, one day at a time.  Life is right now.  Too often I have the perspective that it’s about getting through the difficult things to the gold at the end of the rainbow…  But really when you think about that cliche, isn’t the rainbow beautiful enough?  We can find the abiding peace and rest admidst everything.  I believe even Paul said something similar to this, didn’t he?
