The Fog

Last night, my phone lit up with a weather alert for this morning.   Dense fog alert - visibility limited to 1 mile or less.

How often we come into a similar season in our life where the future is hidden and we feel swamped and stuck in a fog.   We can barely see more than the next step, if that.   Our future is fogged by the heaviness of what-ifs.   What if the diagnosis is or isn’t true?   What if reconciliation or counseling don’t repair the relationship?   What if the prodigal never makes a turn toward home?   What if the never-ending-ness of the daily slogging ahead never lifts to joy in the journey?

God has an app for that.

“Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path” (Psalm 119:105).   We may not have a runway clearly-lit for take-offs and landings but trusting His word and Him as our instrumental guide, we can do both with peace and joy.
