Finding God among the chaos.

       I knew I was missing something, it just wasn’t fitting together. Jeffreys Bay was where I was supposed to be, I knew this, but it didn’t feel right. I was working hard at getting things ready for our team and trying to make this home but yet I didn’t feel God in this place. I kept trying to meet Him and I just wasn’t arriving on time. Among all the chaos here I found God this morning. He met me at church. He knew what I needed; I’m just sorry He once again had to wake me up instead of me running to His arms. I forgot to thank God for bringing me to this place. We walked hand in hand up to the airport and then I let His hand go and just said thanks for getting me thus far but I’ve got it from here. What was I thinking?  So I sat at His feet this morning praising and thanking Him for bringing me here and asked Him to join me for the rest of the journey (my life). 

    It’s interesting why it takes so long sometimes to wake up and realize our need for our Father.  I do love the glorious times I get to understand my own sinful nature and run back to Him.  What an awesome friendship we get to encounter with our Creator.  Thank you, Lord for the journey and provision that you give us. Thank you, Lord for your friendship and understanding when we leave you behind.
