Ask my daughters, this is one of my favorite phrases! We always want to know what is wrong so we can fix it. If we know what the problem is than we can figure out a way to make the problem go away.
This is really the way we work in society now. If something is out of place, than it is a problem and we have to fix it. But is something that is out of place, makes us uncomfortable or moves us in a direction we had not thought about really a problem, or is it God trying to do something in our lives?
So often we rush in and try to find the problem so we can get the quick fix and get on with our happy lives, but maybe, God is pushing us in a new and exciting way and the quick fix, just stops God from moving us…
Why is the tension so hard to live with. It’s like Jesus asleep at the back of the boat. If Jesus is willing to sleep through the storm, I guarantee the storm is not going to cause damage. He is able to relax completely and sleep… The tension will not kill us neither will the storm…
So let go of the quick fix and live in the tension of the moment and see where God takes us…
