I sometimes have to be brought along like that. Been in one of those places for what seems like a long time now, waiting and waiting for Him to let me in on the plan. In God-years, not really so long. I want to keep riding it out with Him and see what He does but admit sometimes with the waiting I strain at the bit.

I'm all about order and doing things my way and have learned some very difficult lessons along these lines. These have been "trying" days for this woman who is prone to control.
