Rest

As I'm sitting in the middle of Sea-Tac airport at gate s-9, I am once again reminded of God's sovereignty in my life. The tune "Your Love is Strong" by Jon Foreman plays back in my mind and the book of Philippians continues to become illuminated in my everyday life.
In the midst of unnamed pain that is occuring in my life right now His grace continually enables me to rest in Him.
I'm overwhelemed as I look at all the unfamiliar faces that are in this airport. Some are sitting by themselves, meanwhile, others are sipping a cup of Seattle's Best Coffee with a friend. There are some who look happy; then, there are those sitting off to the side who look sad and broken. I am overwhelmed by His love for me. In the midst of a million diverse faces, He continues to single me out, drawing me near to Him. I am simply tip-toeing the depths of His unconditional love.
I sit in this airport alone, withdrawn from all who I hold dear in my heart as I journey down a painful and unavoidable road. In the midst of this, I pray that His word continues to be a lamp to my feet and a light to my path as I rest in Him for these next couple days.
