OPEN WATERS

Casting off into a strong tide is fraught with perils. Though open waters beckon, the security of being tied to the dock is compelling. However, forward progress always includes the risk of letting something go. Everything in this world including death itself will eventually be “swallowed up in victory”. Looking ahead to what God is unfolding in His eternal plan helps to ease the pain of current losses. Recognition of the goodness and wisdom of God grants us an unearthly peace as we look toward what is ahead. Lord, keep me from getting uncorked when things change. I know that You work it all out for our good, even when I cannot trace Your hand. Cut me free from fears of loss so that I may embrace what is ahead.
