A look through my eyes

Learning to travel right

I'm finally learning what it means to travel right.

This new journey, called trust, is filled with adventure. It is amazing to me to see the number of times I still try to call the direction from the back seat, as though I can see the road better.  It's no wonder I feel frightened and unsure from time to time.  I'm meant to enjoy the journey, not worry about what's in the road.

As I remind myself to sit back and delight in what I can see, I relax and begin to savor my position as passenger. My Father encourages me to keep my eyes fixed on the things He shows me, and not to become distracted or discouraged by the bumps in the road.  He's got it all under control.

The "seat belt" fits better as I lean back in the seat and rest in the knowledge the journey is part of the whole plan.  The steering wheel is in the hands of the One who can see what's up ahead, and who knows how to handle each situation.

I may get it yet.
