Yes, I know, most people say "signs and wonders" .... however, we serve a mighty God and his wonders are remarkable. Even before you say a word, He knows what's in your heart. This morning, we had a nice stretch of road, it is a four lane highway with wide shoulders. When Nick took his first break, he asked me to take a look at the map, to see what road we would be taking that will take us to the mechanic on Tuesday. So we looked at the map and decided that we were going to take 56 Street East. After he got a bite to eat, he continued on his walk.
I drove about a mile ahead of him and I parked on the shoulder, and it was then that I noticed that the set up of the highway had changed. No more cut offs, this would make it very difficult for Nick to walk over towards me; and the divider piece between the four lanes, had a wire fence on the North bound side of the highway. I told myself, "before you panic and worry, lets go ahead and see if it changes ahead of us." Well, 5 miles later, the set up was the same and to make things more difficult, I saw a sign that said....Tulsa 13...this means we are only 13 miles away from Tulsa. Well, my heart started to pund an I started to think of all the types of roads we could encounter....and of course all the roads that do not have a shoulder.... I was looking at the map and trying to discifer the colors of the roads and trying to remember what they meant. Red is a good road, black is a country road, (no shoulder), Thick red, freeways...we cannot walk those....
I picked up my binoculars to see how far ahead of me was Nick, it look like about mile and a half. I turned my gaze towards the passenger window and this is what a saw!!
As I looked to the sign, I knew God was talking to me, very straight forward. I got a sense of Him telling me: "Did I provide places for you to park in the last two walks....haven't I provided parking places for you this far in this journey." "Do not worry, just trust Me." I felt a bit sad, because I do trust God for everything...or so I thought and yet, when it comes to parking this RV and parking spaces .... I get worried. It was then that I realized that I trust God.... I don't trust my driving and parking abilities!
Lord, please forgive me for focusing on me and my lack of trust in myself. Thank You, that despite how I feel, You are always there.
