AS YOU LOOK at the day before you, you see a twisted, complicated path, with branches going off in all directions. You wonder how you can possibly find your way through the maze. Then you remember the One who is with you always, holding you by your right hand. You recall My promise to guide you with My counsel, and you begin to relax.
As you look again at the path ahead, you notice that a peaceful fog has settled over it, obscuring your view. You can see only a few steps in front of you, so you turn your attention more fully to Me and begin to enjoy My presence.
The fog is a protection for you, calling you back into the present moment. Although I inhabit all of space and time, you can communicate with Me only here and now. Someday the fog will no longer be necessary, for you will have learned to keep your focus on Me and on the path just ahead of you.
1 Corinthians 13:12 Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.
Whether in tangled branches or obscuring fog, in clear or stormy conditions, whether joyful or sad; God is with us. He is walking beside us, holding our hand. He is within us feeling and knowing all. He is beyond us shaping our reality and guiding us on the path to Eden.
So today, let us rise above doubt, fear, anxiety, guilt, hurt and loss to embrace God, commune with God and exist in the hope of joy. It is in doing these things that we find each step on God’s path and proceed with sure pace and steadfast faith to Eden.
Looking out; looking in,
