This morning as I was driving to work, there was very dense fog on the road. I could hardly see the lines on the road; I was barely able to see a few inches in front of me. Life can be like a thick fog sometimes it is impossible to see what’s in front of you. I personally struggle with this, I’m the type of person that likes to be in control of a situation; I’m not a fan of surprises.
I know it’s one of my biggest flaws and I’m working on it.
There are moments in my life where I am not in control and it frustrates me, but I have learned that I need to let God take control. Its until I drive through the fog and get closer where I can finally see why things happened the way they did.
However, when I cannot see the road clear enough to see what’s coming, I’m scared to continue driving. Not knowing what is coming my way is one of the scariest things I’ve had to deal with. I am not sure where you’re driving through right now, maybe the road is not clear for you.
Things are perhaps not making sense in your life at the moment; however, you need to drive through the fog in order to see better.
I know it’s easier said than done, trust me, I know.
Nevertheless, I can tell you that soon you will be close enough to see why things happened the way they did. God has interesting ways of working but at the end they all make sense. But for now, just trust that God is in control.
“For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, “declares the Lord.
Isaiah 55:8-9 (NIV)
