TRUSTING IN THE LORD

I sighed in despair...

It was raining heavily
and driving was becoming more difficult.
I was still out in the country;
the city was ahead.

A client had called me out
to look at a non-receptive antenna.
So engrossed in the fault
I lost track of time...

'Well at least it has been rectified,'
I said quietly to myself,
but I could kick myself for such carelessness.

Driving at this time wasn't safe;
there had been so much in the news
about robbery and even murder on these roads.
'Do I have anything to serve as a weapon?'

Tears clouded my vision, worsening everything;
now I could barely see!
I panicked...

Then suddenly I remembered the words of Overton:
'There's so much now I cannot see,
my eyesight's far too dim;
but come what may,
I'll simply trust and leave it all to Him.'

I relaxed and smiled:
'Living without faith in God,
is like driving in the fog.'
Suddenly I knew it would just be all right!
