"spirit lead me where my trust is without borders...let me walk upon the water...wherever you will call me..."

I have a tough decision to make. Like the kind of decision that won't let you sleep and gets you out of bed at 4 in the morning. It's irritating and needs to be satisfied. Choices are fickle things. You make them because at the time it seems rational and reasonable. And then later on you discover that choice isn't the best one anymore...so you then have to make yet another one to alleviate the nagging feeling that perhaps you got it wrong the first time.
One small choice can turn a situation that was mildly manageable into wildly uncontrollable.
I'm not uber religious anymore. I don't go to church like I used to. I don't read my Bible habitually. But there is a presence that stays with me always....the only thing that keeps me sane at times. He never leaves me. So when I'm in the midst of confusion, He is my peace. He drowns out the other voices that contribute opinions. He focuses my heart on what is most important. He allows me to cut through the petty and stare at the nucleus of the problem.
And always, without fail, love is at the center of all goodness and hope and light. Love, the kind of non-judgmental love that covers you even when you have a face mask on and you've gotten a little plump and you have bad breath from your mouth guard and maybe you need to seriously reconsider the color of your hair. But this love isn't affected in the least by the minute and frivolous. He is only concerned with the state of your heart.
So without borders...wherever He calls me...the decision will be made with the love that sees beyond my bad breath.
