When you make a mistake or something goes wrong or you think you have failed… that exact thing you fell short on, a deadline, a task, an internal lack… many times will turn out being the one thing that saved you. The one event that opened a hallway of doors that would have never been… an idea, an opportunity, or this new found strength that you would have never known of, if you simply did not ‘fail’ from the task at hand. See, I know now that this is how the greatest seasons in our lives begin, as not knowing, confusion and uncertainty. Only later to be understood that this direction has been the exact route all along your soul has been searching and longing for. The liberty of a fresh outlook, a new slate to paint your landscape. The beauty of the ruts and how our ‘imperfectness’ truly completes the process of evolution, progression and time. And how every detail and event, whether happy, sad, big or small, adds up to create a mosaic in our lives. And how everything works out for the good of those who honor and love the Lord our God.
