The "Glasses" of Life......

This is my second full day of wearing my new glasses. I have never had to wear glasses before, or at least I thought I didn't, until now. It is amazing to me how I can relate my new found eyesight to the way us Christians live our lives. Before now my everyday life seemed to go by just as I figured it would.....one foot before the other. But now with much prayer God has cleared my vision and opened a whole new peace of mind. I have struggled for years to become pregnant. I contributed the issues to my weight and other health problems. Now it is true that health issues can hinder your ability to become pregnant but most of all....I need to be right in my life in another way. I need to be patient and know that HE is God. I need to understand that by questioning my life means I am questioning his plan for me...for us. My husband has always been just as excited as I have been for children, but being patient and understanding together will ultimately bring us closer. It has brought us closer. Our closest family is and hour away. We are four hours from each of our parents so for the past 2 1/2 yrs it has been Joe and I. Before today i knew what I wanted for my life but I was seeing all of my dreams and hopes through my "foggy bad eyesight". I wanted what I wanted right now....but I  feel like I have received the glasses of life. I see now that if I am at peace with trusting God, then he will take care of me in perfect timing......his timing.
