Faithfulness in the Dark - Waiting.

It has been almost a month now since we received alarming news about the van.

Since that day Bruce and I have been in prayer, sought advice, trusted, waited and limited the trips in the van. We learned of some treatments you could do to patch the problem, but we have yet to be able to use them because the oil level has to drop to a certain point first and the oil has not gone low enough, in fact the van is running perfectly! Do we still need a new head gasket and so on? Maybe. All I know that as I am faithful and trust, the final word rests in the Lord and Bruce and I are resting in that.

In the meantime, we stay faithful, keep trusting, have patience and wait. Besides, it God's van, it is up to Him.

Being in the dark is sometimes better than having all the answers I think. When we can see solutions we tend to rush in and do what we feel would solve the problem and often it is the wrong thing. As I wait in the dark and see no solution, I know that my Heavenly Father is doing the solving and I like that.
