If you think of darkness as a loss of the ability to see the path ahead then in all honesty it feels like a very dark time in my life. My plans for the future have been a bit scrambled by my wife’s battle with cancer, changes related to my partial retirement and the seemingly unending struggle to find where exactly we will be living next year.

Though the details of your life may differ the

challenges remain the same. We are all put to the test moment by moment to decide where we will choose to go, how we will decide to get there and who we will travel with. In the swirl of daily battles our hope remains in the promises of God. He has promised to be our light. all we have to do is to follow. We do not need to know in advance the twists and turns, the cliffs to climb or the dangers that lie ahead. We do need to completely trust that He has promised to walk ahead of us and to lead us all the way to the city of God!

For he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is God. Hebrews 11:10
