Barking up the Wrong Tree

Apparently, I have been barking up the wrong tree.

It's looking like one of those times when MY plan - which is the most obvious course of action - gets repeatedly halted. Even to the last minute, I sit and I hope that it will fall into place, but no.

So I pray; "Lord, what would you have me do?" He sends perhaps an answer, perhaps a crumb to get me by. Doesn't matter really. So long as I put one foot in front of the other on the path that he is illuminating....one step at a time.

Of course I would prefer to see more than the location of where my right foot should go next, but I think, perhaps it is also a lesson in "Trust Me". Thus far, He as been with me. I know that He stands before me and beside me. He's got my back and He knows the plans He has for me.

Doing anything but trusting and following is surely foolish.

But, ah yes... I am human, and sometimes I like to try my own way.

Fortunately, He stands before and bedside me. He's got my back and He knows the plans He has for me. Eventually, when He breaks it down into small enough pieces, I get it....

Until then, we dance...
