“But rains pour down upon us, storm clouds darken the skies and we get lost in the storm. Have you been there? Wandering in the darkness, crying out only to be greeted with utter silence?"

Potholes



Almost all of us know what these are. We grumble and gripe about them because they truly are annoying and sometimes can damage our cars. The only true way to fix them long term is to redo the road section they are on. You can patch them but that doesn't last long.

Same goes for us. There are things that poke holes in us or that erode underneath to where eventually a hole forms that can be seen. Sometimes they are small like a little pothole but other times they can be huge like a sinkhole.


The smaller they are, the less outside damage they cause yet the bigger they get, the worse they do. Same for us. Are we just going to put band-aids or patches on ours and just hope they don't get bigger or are we going to really deal with the issue?

Sinkholes give very little warning. Sometimes we have had things fester inside us for so long that by the time we realize it's there, the sinkhole has begun.

The only one who can really heal us is God. We must be aware of the potholes in our lives and pray about it but most of all, let it go so we can really fix them. Boy that's hard......

Blessings!
