Be Still

This is what keeps coming to me: be still. Things aren't what they seem. I need to lay low, be quiet and observe. No easy feat for the likes of me. lol Okay, it's late but this is the picture that came to me: I'm pacing the floor, asking God, "alright, so what should I do? what should I say? where should I go? am I going it alone?......" He says, "settle down, Missy" (Mom, is that you? lol). I persist. Finally, He tells me to go to my room for a timeout. lol

Something is happening under the surface. I'm a firm believer in the value of "the process". Sometimes the end result really isn't the point. It's what transpires during the process that shapes the character. I'm glad that God doesn't let us see the end results. I don't think I could handle it. I'd be like, "um, yeah, I'm not feeling that so much....can I pick something else? Door #2 looks better." lol Although I don't know what's going on, I feel this peace and contentment to adopt a "wait and see" attitude and that it'll all come out just fine. Oh yeah, fine as frog's hair. :-) I've got to let God be in control because God knows, my mouth would just mess it all the freak up.

(p.s. by the way, for those who have been wondering if I dropped off the face of the earth......I don't have a computer right now. Aidan pulled the plug out of my Macbook a couple of weeks ago, chewed on the end and then it shorted out when I plugged it back in. The battery ran down on the laptop and I need to buy a new charger which is a nice little hundred bucks. On the plus side, my house is clean. lol and I've returned to my love of reading.)
