It took me by surprise!

I was ready.  I had made my decision.  It was time.  Then my Lord intervened...I heard him say wait...So I asked for a sign before proceeding.  At his opportune time, it happened. The fog lifted and I looked up.  And there it was... the door.  My door was revealed.  It took me by surprise!  Such mercy; Such kindness; Such goodness.  I could not stop thanking him...

I entered. I only found silence.  I was dismayed.  What did I do?  What went wrong?  I waited...Maybe I misunderstood.  No, there it was...silence, contempt.  I was being reminded of who I was...Of where I belong.  There was no courtesy, nor politeness...only cruelty.  It took me by surprise! My eyes were blinded by tears.  My heart broke in pieces.  My soul knew anguish.  So I ran to my refuge...my Lord...I heard him say He was with me wherever I go; Joshua 1:9 He was there! Such mercy; Such kindness; Such goodness.  I could not stop thanking him...
