It’s too easy to lose sight of God’s providence. To try to rely on our own perception, insight and appreciation of what our realities are. The bittersweet, certain, resolute narratives that we build, losing sight of the grander plan, the grace at work, the subtle victories that should enthrall us. I’m more guilty than most, and pray for clarity, for strength, for prudence, for temperance. I feel like I need to see His hand at work in it all, and did for so long, that to seemingly lose sight of it is terrifying, confusing. It’s humbling, as always, and should be. The hubris of feeling entitled to know, with certainty, is only just short of madness, isn’t it? Keep reminding myself of His word: Be still, and know that I am God. Supreme among the nations, supreme above all the earth.
