There is some new app for the phone that lets you do really cool things to pictures. As I came across them, I was reminded of God's hand on my life even when I don't see all the details. I am intrigued by the shadows and the empty spaces of these photos. God is unfolding all the grey areas ( the unknowns) so that one day everything will be made CLEAR and PERFECT. Sometimes the outline or the sketch is all we have. We just have to rest as He brings the details later-- sometimes right away, sometimes later, and sometimes they just don't come while we are on this earth.
This is faith. The NLT says" Faith is the confidence that what we hope for will actually happen; it gives us
assurance about things we cannot see." I love that translation. I love the assurance and hope we have because of Jesus, the confidence that one day soon all those empty places with shadows will be colored in.
The sketch and outline is enough for my life, because I trust You Lord, to fill in the spaces in Your perfect way and time. However brings You glory.
I am so very thankful I can leave all the details of my life in Your hands.
