Topsy-Turvy, Up-side down, Head over Heels...I have heard these terms but honestly I have never experienced not knowing which way I was going. A few Wednesday nights ago, Westin made reference to being caught under water and not knowing which way was up. This morning in worship I got that image in my mind...only it was me. In a spiritual sense, I guess that is how I feel. So busy, hurried, and concerned about The Lakes people, family, and friends that I have worked my way into a tizzy of confusement. I don't always know the right way to go. I don't always know the right thing to do. Should I be concerned or not be concerned, work harder or work less, let it go or dig deep and make it happen. All valid options, all in and of themselves noble and right, all of them swirling around in my head until I get overtaken. And then God makes it easy. He reminds me that it really is just about me and Him. It really is just about the God I fell so in love with as a child. Its about that little girl staying up late to read one more bible story. It is about our story...our love story. The water clears, I know which way to go. No more topsy turvy...just clarity. This morning He spoke gently...He could have spoken loudly. He could have just ripped me apart...He had every right to. But instead He lovingly reminds and leaves me with one thought.... He wants a little less Martha and a lot more Mary.
