REFLECTING ON A RAINY DAY

It rains outside. The sky has been cloudy all day. The temperature went down to 7 degrees Celsius today!! I do not like the cold... but I love to be home and look through the window to my backyard. The trees, once so green, are now losing their leaves, in a silent goodbye. Soon they will be just branches waiting to reborn joyfully in the Spring.

A time like this invites me to reflect, maybe meditate, on where I am at this moment of my life. Interestingly, I have not yet found what drives my life. God knows. I wait in Him. He knows me better than I do, and He knows the right time to show me clearly the way He has already prepared for me. How patient and loving God is! I love His assurance in my heart, mind and soul, that He is holding my hand tight and leading me through His straight path.

It came to my mind my favorite Psalm/Zabur 23 written by King David. It is below in a beautiful image. That is me, one of God's children, following His sweet and candid voice leading me to the safety of His Kingdom. I know nothing without His guidance, His strength, His love. This Psalm/Zabur reminded me that even when I go through those scary and really difficult moments in my life, I never walk alone. God is always there with me, like a wonderful shepherd carrying his lost and scared sheep in his arms back to the safety of the sheepfold.

How great You are, my God and Savior!
