I'm facing, fear I think? It is interesting the opportunities that arise, doors that open, and all the like phrases. Disappointment of not being able to run a race that I had planned seems to have taken my training and made it a bit less important in the scheme of life priorities. Now an opportunity has presented itself, and I may be able to run after all.
If I trust in my faith and the strength that I know will come from above, than I have nothing to fear. Lately trust is something that has been evasive. Maybe I am finding it hard to trust so much in God's hands, I am a bit of a control freak. I know He can handle it all, but it is so very hard to give it over. There is so much going on, and yet nothing is really happening, but not much can happen until some decisions are made and I don't think the requirements have been met for any decision to be made yet.... limbo seems to describe it well. The waiting, and not being in control of anything. This is one of those lessons I think I'm to be learning. Personally I think I'm doing well with this one, considering I'm a bit of a control freak. So here is what I will hold onto this weekend:
Proverbs 3:5 "Lean on, trust in, and be confident in the Lord with all your heart and mind and do not rely on your own insight or understanding." 3:6"In all your ways know, recognize, and acknowledge Him, and He will direct and make straight and plain your paths."
So I have signed up for the run I had resigned myself to not run (I was supporting my husbands need to get in the marathon run), and I will rely on Gods' strength to get me through to the finish. I will no longer question 'why' the opportunity has presented itself, I will just be thankful and say yes. I will be very thankful!
Have a great weekend everyone!
