So we were driving to Canada back in December. We got as far as Buffalo and got caught
in that blizzard. It was an odd situation. Snow could be seen blowing in front of us from
left to right. It stood to reason that once I turned right, the snow would be behind us. But no
matter what direction I turned, the snow would still be blowing from left to right, meaning it
was white-out conditions and the snow was to just swirling around us. I couldn't see more than
ten feet in front of the vehicle. There were others in the car with me on the verge of panick.
I stayed calm because that level of emotion is just a waste of energy. Besides, I'm just not
one to panick. I was nervous, because it highway closures put us on back roads where the
only lights were from my headlights. Building snow drifts closed down lanes and we risked
head-on collisions in the blinding snow. I prayed a lot. And obviously God got us back home
safely, but the ordeal taught lessons.
When the streets were darkest I suddenly happen upon a snowplow clearing the road ahead of
us. It wasn't traveling at a speed that I desired, but it took us along the way safely and sensably
And just when I was relying on that alone, it would turn off to another direction and leave me,
seemingly, alone. And just when it seemed to be darkest times, with the least amount of
visabilty, I'd happen upon another plow. And what did I get from this?
As I trudge through my journey, God will always provide me with guidance and direction even
when it seems I can't see anything on the other side of where I currently am. And no matter
how long that guide stays with me, I have to continue on my journey - even if the guide and
me have to part company. Some people will come into your life to get to a certain place or
level. And once you reach that level, you can't continue hanging on to them or you will never
get any further or higher than you are. God will take you to your next place even if that journey
takes you through the darkest, lonliest night. You have to trust God and the peace of God will
Keep you through ever challenge. The end result is wholeness... you reached your dreams... you
reached your goals... you built that business... you wrote that book... you got your health!
You made it home.
Stay Prayed Up
