As I let my right foot follow my left the beginning of my journey switches from anticipation to a world of the unknown. My instructions are to follow the path. I was told don’t worry about forks in the road my team will be there to guide you and carry this log and write something you want to let go of. So a little thought to myself “Okay, so I am suppose to trust these people and telling me what to do and what do I need to let go. What is holding my down?” This definitely not being a strong area in my life.
So I prayed about what I needed to let go and wrote the word “trust” down not knowing what it was going to actually teach me. So I begin my journey on this path, carrying this log being able to see one of my teammates which gave me a since of guidance knowing I wasn’t alone. In my first few minutes of walking a came to a hill and begin my journey up and having a eye sight of my fellow teammate at the top I went up strong. As I made it to the top there was no one in site. My stomach instintly tightened up and felt alone. I continued on my path not thinking about what I needed to let go of but thinking I am going to get lost and not be able to find my way. Not knowing at the time that I was already lost. As I kept walking I turned a corner and saw another teammate but walking off the path we were asked to walk on.
So I continued on the path let my thoughts overcome my heart. I kept searching up the path seeing if I could find someone I could follow. When I couldn’t find hope in the distance then I would look back and see if I could find hope but in my eyes there was none. Because I was so overwhelmed with being unsure of my path I wasn’t able to focus on what I was suppose to search in my heart. When I began to look back I would lose my footing for the path I was asked to walk. These words begin to filter in my heart. “Trust Me”
At that moment my mind began to race. “How do I do that Lord” At so many times in my life I feel so unsure. And those words “Trust Me” just repeated over and over in my heart and my mind. He didn’t tell me what to let go, what I needed to hold on to but just “Trust Me.” So I began my walk with a little more confidence then I had when I began and repeating the words out of my mouth “Trust Him.”
I was still holding this log that said “Trust” on but at that time I didn’t feel the weight of it. I began seeing teammates that were walking the same path as I was and the Lord was just revealing that this journey you are on, your not alone physically or spiritually. As I came to forks in the road my guides words were true. There were people there guiding me the right direction.
So what made me so unelievable happy at the end of this journey was that Iet go of that log knowing the Lord provided once again. And that I was given one more reason to love the Lord my God. By no means am I going to not doubt journey’s in my life. But I know those words will always be in my heart and my mind. “Trust Me.”
