Getting Through the Fog

It was foggy the other day. And, as was expected, it was hard to see through the fog. Our car headlights allowed us to get “through” the fog. We did not avoid it, we did not go over it, or under it….the light got us through it.

I love these verses. A good friend pointed them out to me the other day when we were talking. Sure, I have heard them over and over. And I can even quote them. But can I live in them? The Amplified version even explains it better.

Jesus did not say we “might” have troubles, He said we “would” have troubles. But…. there is hope. That hope that says “I will not necessarily deliver you from your trials and brokenness…but through them. You will get to the other side. God gets us “through” our challenges, for He has overcome the world and all that there is within this world. His victory is abiding.

May we Rest in that Hope, that Perfect Peace.

For the fog will show up, as will His light to guide us through it.

Lift that Load with Thanksgiving!

I have the privilege of knowing two of the most darling twin boys. They love watching videos of back hoes, combines, tractors….Evidently any farm implement. They watch with such concentration as some of these machines scoop dirt or rock, lift it, turn and place it in a piles or rearrange it. These machines move with precision and do quite a bit of work. Our very own boys loved watching the very same things years ago. Some things never change.
