"When we trust our lives to the hand and pen of an unseen but ever-present God, He will write our lives into
His story and every last one of them will turn out to be a great read. With a grand ending. And not just in spite of those catastrophes. Often because of them. Don't just wait and see. Live and see." Beth Moore -Esther
I fittingly read this last night. I thought it fit then because of the theme of writing. I feel as if His hand and pen have written out the details of my life up to now. Each new chapter, He gives me a foreshadowing of in the previous. Then He gently unfolds it, pulling me in and making me long for what is next. This chapter, as I have said, brings something new, and I am eager and excited.
Today however, the quote seems fitting, because today I feel as if it is hard being a woman. Tough meetings, angry people, management I don't understand or agree with, expectations, being capable yet tired and on the edges of burnout. Today I feel there is a foreshadow of difficulty and hardship. Today I feel as if there is a foreshadowed catastrophe. So last night I saw the beauty in the quote, today I see the difficulty.
