Life has once again led me to a fork in the road. And as usual.... I haven't the slightest idea which way to go. I think most all of us have this happen to us way more often than we would like. I do find it interesting how different I handle it these days than I did just a few years ago. I remember feeling like my whole world was coming to an end and "oh my goodness, what am I going to do". I have to admit that this is still my initial reaction to the challenges I face. The difference now is that I don't stay in that frame of mind for long. When I did, I was absolutely miserable. I didn't like the way I felt. So, now I have my moment, put it in God's hands and move on. Why continue to mope around about it? God is in control and HE knows what is best for me. I may not always understand why things go the way they do. But I can guarantee that some point down the line I will look back and understand it. It may not be while I am on this earth, but I will when I see Jesus' face in my heavenly home. This brings to mind a hymn I grew up singing......
Farther along we'll know all about it
Farther along we'll understand why
Cheer up my brother, live in the sunshine
We'll understand it all by and by
