SEEING THROUGH THE FOG

Today everything is shrouded in a blanket of white.It's difficult to see "your finger in front of you" as the saying goes.I'm glad that Ian is driving as we visit relatives, because this kind of weather makes me nervous in the car.We have to go very slowly and the trip takes twice as long to make.But I think of life and the experiences it throws our way.Sometimes we "can't see the wood for the trees" and can't seem to find a way out of the heavy cloud that surrounds us.Yet looking back from a sunnier view point, we realise what a blessing it is that we were brought to a walk instead of the usual gallop.God slows the pace,allows the fog to surround but not engulf us in order to teach us the important things in life and I'm grateful every day for that.
So we must not stay in the stale fog on the low ground, but learn to "see Jesus " and rise with a new vision of hope.
