What To Do when Things are not Completely Clear

Many things in life we expect them to be as clear as possible. It is what gives us the extra passion to go through the goals we have set before us and sometimes is what dare us to take certain risks.

I have personally struggle plenty with many things in my life that are so uncertain. Things and circumstances that no matter how much I look at them and try to rearrange the thoughts, nothing comes clear. And by the way, I wear glasses!

 

But many times my whole brain is as clear as this one. Definitely nothing in it to begin with. Or perhaps like I have nothing more to add or subtract. 

 

Many if not always, we have too many things in the brain. Many ideas that each pull towards their own way. The uncertainty of what would be the correct path for each individual idea. The unrest of the many hours in the night we spend trying to use the quietness of our solitude to clear their paths. 

Our brain is marvelous. It is simple yet complicated at the same time. It depends on which would you focus on. As humans we tend to naturally focus on its complexity. We tend to explain everything and find tangible solutions. We study the storm and try to figure out how to get out of it. 

The battle for my Joseph has been a storm that never ceases and probably never will. Just completed another paperwork and be ready to take it to court once again. Will they notice the pattern of me having to fight for his right to spend more time with his mother or will they look at the pattern of the constant filling of paperwork and trouble then with the simple task of my child's right to spend time with me? 

I will not know until I am there. In the meantime I need to be confident that not just for me but for everyone in this world, there is the rest that our Lord is always in the midst of our storms.

"Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives.  Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid."  

John 14:27 (NIV)

It is so comforting to know and even better to be able to feel the peace that he gives to all of us is unconditionally. The only requirement is to personally and individually grab hold of it.  

You see, the rhyme is so very truth, that 

He got the Whole World in His Hands!

Are you in His Hands?
