Watchful Eye
My personality is one that is constantly envisioning the future. I will play out scenarios over and over again days, months or years before they may happen. I also have excellent anticipation of what may happen in just a few seconds, but so also have an optimistic outlook typically and that sometimes gets me in trouble.
My oldest son is a beastly manchild who terrorized right tackles, quarterbacks and running backs alike this last fall. Over and over again this past fall I envisioned this 8th grader whipping his blocker to stuff the play in the backfield and then saw it happen live right in front of my eyes. I’m not kidding, I have video and I’m surprised I haven’t already shoved it in your face.
When he was 4 he was in a mini bounce house with the kid across the street that essentially functioned as a wrestling ring. This kid was younger and smaller but tough and mouthy to boot. They got to wrestling and I was envisioning Michael wiping the mat with this foul mouthed little hooligan.
Too late I realized that Michael, who had never wrestled with anyone in his life, had no idea what to do. He was in a headlock, being pulled backwards and croaked out “Dad, HELP!” I can still hear the panic in his voice, and I still feel failure as I realize how alone and afraid he felt and the effect of those precious seconds it took me to break it up.
God is never distracted. He is never on His phone. He is never caught up envisioning the future. He at the same time knows everything that will happen and yet allows us to live in the tension of the unknown. He is not unaware of what you feel right now. He is fully aware of your struggle, your worry, your pain. He has no intention of letting you walk it alone, but He will also not force you to do it His way. Talk to Him. Tell him what you feel, where your heart is, how you hurt…and then listen for His encouragement. Look for His provision and direction.
““Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? And which of you by being anxious can add a single hour to his span of life? And why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin, yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is alive and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? Therefore do not be anxious, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For the Gentiles seek after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them all. But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. “Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.”
