When we are in a space of overwhelm we lack clarity.  We are not sure where to go or what to do because there is too much to think about or we feel pressure to be right.  If we look at the areas of our lives in which this happens most they usually correlate with the areas of which we are most vague.  Vagueness stems from fear.  We push back from clarity because it may mean getting it wrong.  We decline to take a look at what is really going wrong for fear that what we are fearing is true.  If this is an overarching theme in our lives it may be because we live in the vagueness of ourselves.  Many of us reach moments in life when we are doing what we are doing and saying what we are saying simply because it is what we have always done.  Maybe we thought it is what was expected of us.  That is not clarity. That is motor skills.  It was not until I was broken down enough and willing to look at the vague areas of my life that I found the clarity I was seeking.  Perhaps it is the gift of the brokenness of addiction but when I found myself at the feet of God with my heart open the vagueness began to clear.  I accepted God’s invitation to look into the heart I thought was full of darkness and too fragile to be looked at.  God goes with me each day on our dates to this day with the light of love as we see another nook of vagueness. With God, I do not need to let the fear stop me from going into the vagueness.
