There were four of us on this hike when we got somewhat lost. And I was reminded again how good it is to almost get lost. It reminds you of the danger. It keeps you humble and protects you from being overconfident in yourself. It sharpens your senses and your defenses.
It is the same in life. To almost be trapped, reminds us of the danger. To almost fall, humbles us before God who knows all and protects us from ourselves -- who barely know anything. To almost go the wrong way, makes us alert to our enemies and builds our confidences in Christ's saving power. Thank you, God, for allowing us to almost get lost and please bring us back from the brink more surrendered to You and at rest with You. Amen. Comments are closed.
