I went out for a walk this afternoon, with life weighing heavily on me. So many choices to make, no clear path, but I will have to make some decisions soon, and I don't like any of the options. I fear I am suffering from "paralysis by analysis."

On my way back to the house, the mountains were spectacular. The light is just right today to make them look about 10 steps away, speckled with light and shadow, mesmerizing. I complimented God on His fine work, and immediately, and clear as day He answered, "I know, they're amazing. So, don't you think I'm qualified to take care of YOUR problems?"

It was startling and comforting and powerful all at once. I was unable to do anything but answer in absolute truth "Yes, I know you are." And in that short statement what I also knew and acknowledged is that He is not only capable, but He knows and understands fully what I am going through AND He wants to help me through this. I felt so understood, so surrounded, so cared for. He will not leave me alone, He will see me through. I am not alone.
