Yesterday I took my son and his family to the airport so they could begin their trek to their home. Living in a different country means that I won’t see them for a few months. I enjoyed having them in our house. I can still hear my third year old grandson saying; ‘grandpa I love you.’ It still sends chills up and down my spine to think of hearing those words. As much as I loved their visit and long for it again, it also threw my routine off. I stayed up later than usual. I went and did activities that I would not normally do. I found myself feeling a bit more tired than usual and not getting done what had to be done. Today as I write these words I am catching my breathe and looking forward to the ‘regular’ routines I function best in.
As I reflect on all of this, I am reminded again that God calls us out of our ruts. He calls us by faith to walk into the unknown and certainly the uncomfortable. From where I sit this is not easy but then God does not call us to comfort. Life is every changing and God calls us to be people of faith. Today I pray I will walk out of my ruts and follow God no matter where He leads.
