Eye of the Storm

There have been some big, exciting, yet tough transitions made in my life recently. Sometimes when you move so fast like this, it's hard to stop moving. It becomes difficult to get thoughts to settle and to sift out the worries amongst the joys and new sights taken in.

And when I stop to think, all I can think of is how far from home I am.

As everything swirls around me in a whirlwind of excitement and newness, I become afraid at what I've gotten myself in to.

What am I doing here?







Then, with such reassurance, I am reminded that:

I belong here.

That anchor, amidst the raging seas won't let me go, won't let me stray too far. Then, like a flood rushing in, I remember all that You've done for me and all that You brought me through; how everything was so perfectly orchestrated... though it may have felt like I was stumbling along, You carefully guided my steps and never overwhelmed me with too much. You lit my paths and worked everything together for my good. Never was I abandoned, never did You forsake me. You calmed the wind and the waves around me. Even when I began to lose trust, You reminded me that You were right here and that it's all in Your control.
