I walked 18 holes of golf yesterday morning (even though we had a high of 104 degrees by mid day!) and as I walked I noticed how beautiful the grass looked ahead of me, smooth and soft. But when I arrived to that same spot I had gazed upon a few minutes earlier, I noticed that the grass was bumpy and hard in places. It made me think about how often we think that everyone else around us is living a smooth, soft life and we are the only ones going through hard times. But when we get close to those "everyone elses" we find that their lives are as bumpy and hard as ours is. Actually, I have found that other people are going through much hard things than I am going through. (They probably think that about my trials too)
So the next time you think the grass is greener further down the fairway...remember...there will be bumps ahead. I sure am glad that I know and can count on my Abba Daddy to be with me and help me through those bumpy places. As His children we can rest secure in His love and care for us.
