Fog Lights

It’s not unusual for me to travel at least 400 miles any given week.  And I don’t commute to work!  Being a midwesterner, this means show, rain, sleet, fog, drizzle, and sometimes sunshine.  

Recently fog forced me to slow down.  My lights shifted to lower beams.  I could only see a bit of the road in front of me.  But that’s all I needed to see.  High beams or ‘brights’ would have been useless, given the conditions.

I recently prayed fervently for a certain outcome.  And it didn’t happen.  As I’ve pondered why God didn’t see the ‘necessity’ I saw, I remembered my fog lights.  He is only letting me see what I need to see in this moment.  He knows what’s beyond that cloud that I don’t understand.  That’s enough for me.
