Let go.
My life flashed before my eyes this evening. First was a moment filled with peace and quietness, the next was a moment of chaos and panic. The moment after that followed with tears and thankfulness for my life. How could a moment pass so quickly? How could my life be so drastically changed in a moment!?
It baffles me, really. There is absolutely no way that I could accurately predict what my next moment will encounter. Not only can I not predict it, I can’t control it.
Here is what I’m learning: Although I might believe that danger might only exist in the next moment, it actually only exists in my effort to control the next moment. The danger in the moment after this one, along with the peace, the safety, the love, …it’s all controlled by God. If that statement is as convicting to you as it is to me, we have some sitting to do. We have some following to do. We have some listening, learning, gleaning, watching, praising, trusting, and waiting to do.
We have something to be.
