Woke up to a failure. In the midst of rough storms, a bad step feels like a slip at the edge. Dark seas below with churning, roaring froth, and Dark, empty clouds above with terror thundering. I'd rather get struck by lightning than drown.
Today keeps going regardless. There are immense terrors out there, and I'm not allowed to blink.
I need a truly new day. Can't wait to go home and shower. I think I'll wash the tub and actually sit in the warm spray. When I was in high school I'd turn to Empire Strikes Back during rough times. There's no other way to combat one of life's terrible shit storms like watching the most epically galactic shit storm ever captured on film.
Seriously though "Let the morning bring me word of your unfailing love, for I have put my trust in you. Show me the way I should go, for to you I lift up my soul" (Psalm 143:8). I often resent it when individuals quote Bible at me while my life is a mess. But then I remember that it is the fallen that truly know God. May we all know God in the hard times. Life is generally good, it is the bad that is the anomaly.
