He pilots my Ship!


We are in thick of this thing called Trusting God.  It's June.  The two jobs that seemed very promising have come and gone.  Other candidates were chosen.  In my human frailty it's tough to not to look at the situation and fret.

Just yesterday on the way to work I prayed and told God exactly how I was feeling.  I was brutally honest.  He simply whispered promises from His word.  I cling to them with every ounce that I have.  He's faithful even when I can't see what He's doing or what His plan is.  He's God and I am not.

My favorite part about about God is that He answers when we call.  There've been days of recent where I've texted friends, called them, and they don't answer or don't text me back.  Their numbers are current.  I'm reminded though that humans will fail me but God will never fail me.  He's always there and that brings me comfort on many levels even in the thick of it all.

I call this journey Uncertainty.  Jesus is the pilot of this ship.  If I took control let me tell you I'd mess it all up in about 2 seconds flat.  The waves seem high, the storm seems to wage undendingly but He is the master of the wind.  He pilots my ship.  I have to trust Him.  I have no choice.  He has a plan although it's very exhausting waiting on him.  Do I get down?  You bet but I can't stay there.  Sean can't stay there.  We must trust the captain of our ship to guide us.  He's never gotten us lost, led us astray, or abandoned us.  He pilots our ship.

Trusting God day by day,
Alicia Roark
