God sees the big picture and us a mere fraction of it

It has been a crazy last few days. I was so swamped with decisions to make that it sort of took a part of my spirit away. I felt drained and tired, and slept a whole lot... I even started to question if God was with me, is He guiding me through these decisions that I made?

You see, we have been searching for a car since last week when we arrived but the cars that we have viewed were either due for a major servicing or the price was alittle over-priced for our conservative budget. Plus the fact that I had to make a major decision to pursue the PhD despite being aware of the prospect that our finances will be heavily strained.

These weighed heavily on my shoulders and then, like an eagle saving her young only at the very crucial moment before they hit the ground, God led me to Bo's blog and what I read jotted me out of my delusion. He spoke of the power of faith words and to use them to create our reality rather than to describe it. That despite the gloom that we see ahead of ourselves, we can decide what words to use to create that future that we want. Indeed, God sees the big picture and us a mere fraction of it. So today, I say that the experiences we garnered from our car search will help us choose the right car. Our financial situation will improve and our hope for a place of our own will come, because God will provide.

Dear friends, thank you for your constant prayers. May you draw strength from our struggles and may we from your prayers.
