Colossians
3:15, "And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the
which also ye are called in one body, and be ye thankful." KJV
For
quite a while now a big squirrel has perched right on the top point of
the building out back. He looks like an ornament, really, he looks
frozen, not moving except the wind blowing his fluffy tail. I wonder
if he is angry about this weather, or maybe the stash he had for his
family is depleted. I don't know, maybe he is confused by this
weather. One moment the sky is sprinkling snow on us, just like you
would sprinkle confectioner sugar on your french toast, then all of a
sudden it stops and the sun shines so bright. You think, wow is it
over, then it starts up again. That's the way of confusion and it's
something we all have at times. It is hard to deal with, when your
prayers are still not heard and your heart is breaking for your loved
ones. You began to question God, “Why the delay?”
This
is the time to be very still and very quite and just wait, just like
the squirrel perched on the highest point. God can soothe all our
frustrations and calm our minds. We can rest in His presence and know
He loves us but we must remember sometimes He allows us a little
while of "feeling all alone and confused." Don't give up
and don't complain. Rest in the fact that God has it all in His hands
and in His time He will make all things beautiful...with no
confusion. He brings Peace and Joy that will overflow in our heart
and bring assurance in every situation.
