Unraveling

My early morning art. Looks like the talent of a two-year-old, right?


Actually, this is how I view my past right now. A big fat wad of yarn. A few identifiable, obvious stands sticking out, but for the most part... An indiscernable mess. My memory is so clouded that I can't really even recall certain events that have shaped me. The thought of healing root issues overwhelms me. How do I even spot the roots?

But God...

God showed me today this is what He will do:


He will bring healing, one piece at a time. He will unravel this mess, one strand at a time. He will make things plain, clear, straight. One at a time. In this I have faith, hope, and peace.

Are you struggling under the weight of something? Something that seems impossible?  Maybe you have no idea where to start to tackle this beast.

It is my prayer that just as God encouraged me today with this visual of how He will unravel my mess, may He encourage you as well. What is impossible for us to do on our own, God can do. One piece at a time, He will show us what we need to see and bring us healing. Resolution. Freedom.

Let us place in His hands our messy, overwhelming things. He will delight to show us His faithfulness and reveal his power over the impossible!
