Have you ever found yourself in the middle of something and wondered how you got there? You were sure you were following a specific path or trajectory and then you wake up to realize you are in a different space than you intended. Circumstances did not work out the way you had planned, and you are now in the midst of facing things and making decisions you did not foresee. I think we all experience in many areas of our lives. Our life is not what we plan, it is who we are being as it happens. I believe God who created us sees beyond what we can see. God does not have a small plan for our lives. God wants our souls to be able to rejoice at the whispered reminder we are alive today. God wants our hearts to be tickled by the vast possibilities of love built into a feather. God desires us to come to a clear recognition that we are loved beyond what our being can encompass. God wants us in the midst of his reality. She invites us to open the eyes of our hearts when we find ourselves in these places we did not foresee for ourselves and ask, “God what do you see for me here than I am not seeing?” When life is going along just fine we do not often stop and ask God for his sight. When we feel in sync with the flow of life we do not wonder if she is seeing it the same way because we are in the midst of it. Alignment with God brings a peace and a satisfaction that is beyond explanation and when we are in the midst of it, even the bumps and difficulties seem a little less drastic.
My prayer for us is the willingness to trust we are always in the midst of something greater designed by God’s plan than our eyes might be able or willing to see today.
