Father Still Knows Best



“The Father really knows best. I’m praying and believing that my season as “the man with the cane” is waning and a new and “better” season is in the wind. No matter. He is still God and the best is always ahead.”

How soon we forget. If the above seems familiar, it’s because I said it a couple of days ago in this blog. I thought it was pretty deep and wise. Yesterday, upon hearing that my procedure did not come out perfectly, I was discouraged, perhaps despondent. It is easy to claim faith and trust. It is more difficult to walk it out. It turns out I will likely need to have my knee replaced at some point in the unknown future. I had hoped to avoid that, but it may not be possible. That is in no way the worst news anyone could ever receive. In fact, it isn’t close to the worse news I ever received. Yet it was enough to set me back, if only temporarily. That was yesterday. Today I talked with my doctor. I feel 100 percent better. Life is good. We really are fickle creatures, aren’t we?

If you’ve slipped today or yesterday, getting up is the next step. He loves it when we trust Him. He loves it more when we trust Him again. The walk is not always in straight lines, but with His strength, the final destination is assured.

Be blessed.
