Page 2 of 2Are you slowing down enough to hear the low whisper of God? Are you resting in his power and provision? Am I? Are we so busy checking things off a to-do list that we overlook the treasure of wandering for a while with him?
I didn't find any bungee cords at Goodwill. But I found those DVDs and I found those four pairs of pants. More importantly, I took a moment to wander; to remind myself that I'm not in control. Even though I had wedding details and preparations for moving to think about, I needed to keep those things in perspective and rest in God. He's the one holding things in place, even without the help of used bungee cords.
