Have you ever been walking through life when all of a sudden you can't see around the bend? Is there any greater feeling of inadequacy than realizing you don't have it all figured out...you don't have everything under control...you don't see every step clearly?
At times like that, I tend to stop down and determine to figure it out. To get everything under control. To strain my eyes and discover where the path leads.
But maybe we aren't meant to have it all down.
Maybe we're supposed to realize that we aren't omniscient, omnipresent, omnipotent.
Maybe our feeling of inadequacy is the very thing that ushers in the reality that there is a God who is much bigger, much more powerful, much more in control than we are.
And maybe that feeling is the very thing that affords us the security to move forward. Even when we may not see exactly where the path leads.
