The Crooked Made Straight

God is always making things right.

Life is crooked right now.  I am like the frayed end of a shoelace that won't go into the hole.  So I get folded, squeezed, pushed, pulled, scrunched up.  But in the end of all that deformation, I will be through the hole and straightened out.  Everything will be as it should be.  Right now, when everything is crooked and uncomfortable and nothing seems right, I have faith in the Lord that he is in the very process of making things right... and maybe he will fix the frayed part for good.  Someday.  Soon.  When the time is absolutely perfect in his eyes.

Until then, I will be a good shoelace that cooperates with its handler.  The more I cooperate, the quicker He can get me through and use me for greater things.  I have faith.  God gives me happiness that nothing can take away.
