What does a trip to the beauty salon and life have in common? I got my hair cut yesterday. Bel, my beautician, says my hair is the most challenging to cut of all her customers. She has a vision for what my hair should look like, but I just can't see it. I am letting my hair grow a little and working toward a better shape. I just don't know where it is going. It's that tunnel thing again. This time it is the hair tunnel. I am having to trust my beautician (and I do), rely on what she can see and be patient until I get there. That's just like life isn't it?
We all have plans and dreams. That is a good thing. But if we desire for our plans and dreams to line up with what God has in mind for us, sometimes we just have to wait. We need time to grow a little and allow God to shape our lives. We have to trust Him and depend on His all-knowing wisdom. Wait . . . Trust. . . Grow . . . Depend on God . . . not easy, but necessary.
There is light at the end of the hair tunnel and there is light at the end of life's tunnel. "Though I sit in darkness, the Lord will be my light." Micah 7:8b
