It seems there is a lot of stretching going on right now, in both my life, and in the lives around me. It’s almost like God is putting many of us on the potter’s wheel at the same time, and posing that age-old question, “do you really want to grow?”
Growing in many respects requires this sort of stretching, this time when we are almost forced into shapes and positions that feel rather uncomfortable, and certainly unnatural. I keep finding myself repeating the verse that “God works through ALL things for the good of those who love him and work according to His purpose.” Wow, I find a lot of peace in that right now. I probably need to meditate on that one for an hour each day… lol
So, by now you are wondering what it is that is stretching me, or us, or the world around me… well, I can’t really say yet, as so much of it is still in this position of flux, but trust (just as I am) that God is at work, and the outcome (whatever it may be) is going to be INTENSLY COOL! We just may not realize it yet… But I pray (as I find myself doing a LOT lately) that God’s fingerprint continues to be apparent and that we all continue to look for it.
Stretch-away!
