My thoughts tend to wander all over the place!
It's so quiet and peaceful and I can just let myself calm down...
But the thoughts still come.
Later, when I crawl into bed and settle in - hopefully for the night; or at least for a few hours - my mind continues to wander.
I think about what I should - or should not - have done.
I think about what I should - or should not - have said.
I think about how I am going to make it for just one more day with the uncertainties.
I think about where this journey is heading...
And, will we even "get there"?
It's dark outside - night. It's dark inside - deep down inside my soul is dark as night, thinking about what will be...
But in the dark of night...
That's when I have my conversations with God. And I know that He's got this! Even though it doesn't seem like it, I know he has it in His hands; and in His timing.

"Even though it doesn't seem like it, I know he has it in His hands; and in His timing." Amen, Barbara! I often pray at night, too. Blessings to you!
ReplyDeleteI have faith that this is so! Thank you for reading and commenting...I think it must take time for these comments to post?!
DeleteThe uncertainties are hard ... and so are the certainties sometimes. I'm glad your night-time conversation with God brings peace in the midst of darkness.
ReplyDeleteYes, my conversations with God definitely help! I should do it more often!! Why do we always wait til we are so stressed out to finally do that?! Thanks for reading and commenting.
DeleteI’m right there with you Barbara! Even wrote about the same thing for my post! My night time voice is loud sometimes but I’m learning to mute it and listen for God’s still small voice instead. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteOh yes, I need to quiet my own voice or thoughts so I can listen to God's still small voice! Thank you for reading and commenting.
