. Connecting . The . Dots .

On any given day, a flood of memories will hit me.  There's connections of songs, emotions, smells even, that bring me back in time.  It's like that 5-click game on wikipedia.  Each and every thing and event has a connection to another memory, until I find myself lost in thought.   Yesterday I found myself connecting the dots between how God has showed up in my life.  As I prayed, read some prayer journals, and remembered, I was overwhelmed by God's sovereignty in my life thus far.  Despite my own foolish mistakes, God has kept working everything together in my life for good.  He has revealed himself so many times in response to my prayers and heart's desires.  He also has worked things out for what is best even when I did not understand it at the time.  As I connect the dots between what God has done in my life, I can't help but be in awe.  It inspires a new trust in me.
