“Let the morning bring me word of your
unfailing love, for I have put my trust in you. Show me the way I should go,
for to you I lift up my soul. Teach me to do your will, for you are my God; may
your good Spirit lead me on level ground.”
(Psalm 143: 8, 10 NIV)
Orange light peeked through the trees and
lit up the milky, blue sky. Like a long tail, the small duck’s wake followed
him across the dark, still lake.
His little waves changed the water
and kept moving and moving. He didn’t go in circles, zigzag or look backwards.
With perseverance and determination, he focused on his forward course.
At times I feel like I am going in
circles and jumping from one activity to another. I wonder if I am even making
a difference in the world.
The little duck reminded me to focus
on God’s plan for me and not look back at what used to be. If I continue with
perseverance and determination, He will send my ripples in the perfect
direction.
Heavenly
Father, thank you for using your creatures to teach me. Lead me in the way you
want me to go. Amen
