This past summer, we went to Detroit Lakes for a week with some family. One of those family members was my little grandson who is about a year and a half old.
One day, my husband and I took him out on a paddle boat. He'd never been on a boat before and is a little cautious by nature so I was wondering how this was going to work. We put on his life jacket and put him in the boat while we pushed it into the water. So far, he sat quietly and just looked around to see what was going on. Then we climbed in and off we went. After a few minutes I leaned forward to see his little face. He sat there so contentedly with a hand on each of us and the biggest smile across his little face.
At that moment, I had a God revelation. I felt God say to me: you don't need to know where you're going or what the outcome is going to look like. Trust me. Put your hand on my arm and smile. I love you completely and I want you to enjoy the ride.
Thank you, Lord, for simplifying my heart and my thoughts and showing me how to enjoy my journey!
