resolving a thing

Sometimes we have problems or issues that are difficult to resolve.  We work and struggle and ask our friends for advice, but it seems like we are stuck in a predicament.  How long can this go on?  How long will I be stuck not knowing what to do?

Sometimes we have to make peace with ambiguity and make friends with our issues that are not easy to resolve.  But I have noticed another thing that I find to be amazing, and that is that sometimes these issues resolve themselves.  It's like we wake up one morning and just see it a little more clearly, or you wake up in the morning and something inside of you has healed. You had been praying, "Dear Lord, show me the way." And it's like He did!!

There is the amazing thing that the Holy Spirit can do sometimes that helps us to find peace in the midst of a storm.  If you are in a dilemma, talk to your friends, see a counselor, keep working on it, put pray that God will bring clarity.  You just never know what might happen.  Tomorrow you may wake up and just see the thing in a completely different way. 

It's a beautiful day in God's world, be sure to see the good.

There is a group that calls this wreckage of the past. The theory is you point your life in a forward direction working to fix the issues that caused the wreckage (if you can) and you eventually leave it behind.

It is a very freeing notion that you do not have to dwell in all that "wreckage" for the rest of your life.
