This morning was extremely foggy on my drive into work. There were some parts of the interstate where you couldn’t see anything off of the highway in the unusually thick fog. About half way to work, I started to see where the sun was trying to break through. It was really cool because I was able to look almost directly at the sun and it looked like a flashlight behind a blanket. It would get brighter at times and then disappear altogether. I began to imagine a war between the sun and the fog as the sun was trying to shine through and the fog was trying to envelop everything and keep it in darkness.
Sometimes I can feel like I am in the fog not knowing exactly where I am and the familiar things are not very clear. I imagine that God is like the sun trying to break through the fog to get to us. Are there parts of your life that you leave open to the light, while other parts you keep shrouded in the darkness and the fog? It scares me to think of my life under the microscope because I am very far from perfect. I am not always a nice and helpful person. I can be downright selfish at times. I figure on being a work in progress for the rest of my time in this world.
