I drove towards a metaphor the other day. Yep, it's true. I
was driving to work after a 2-Hour delay (about 7:00am), and the sun was just
beginning to rise. It was a glowing magnificent gold. It was one of those days
where you truly could look at the sun and appreciate it. I was watching it with
my KLOVE blaring and just thinking about how magical the moment was.
But
then, it was gone. Hidden behind the tree line. Hidden by buildings and farms.
Then, minutes later it was back as bright as ever. What a metaphor...
You all
probably know where I am going with this, but I got to thinking about life. (I
know, I know, I think a lot for 7:00 in the morning.) Some seasons you have the
sun to light your way and to show you its radiance. But the inverse of that is
also true. Some seasons you question where you are going. You know that the sun
exists but it isn't quite showing you where to go. You do your best to go down
the road in the right direction.
In life,
we don't have a weather report to tell us when the sun is going to rise and
set. You just have others, love, and faith. So use those three things as a compass, even if you
can't quite see where you are going.
