OSAAT

Trying to get myself to bed at a decent hour tonight, but I wanted to quickly repost the Mennonite doxology I grew up with (posted Oct 1 but in case it got lost in all the text, here it is again). Posting it because my heart is full of praise as I crawl into bed tonight.

Tonight I am thankful to announce that I have a flatmate. I've had a few scary evenings here, so I'm glad not to be alone anymore. Yesterday I was thinking, surely we can't handle knowing our future––good or bad––it's too much information for us to handle well. It has been good to watch things unfold one step at a time and to be mostly comfortable with not knowing more. And God has been so faithful and so good in His provisions, why do I ever feel a need to know more than one step at a time? I am also enjoying so very much to be settling in somewhere indefinitely. I am weary of travel (but will be on the road again for 4-5 weeks). One. Step. At. A. Time.
