What do you do when you figure out that what you would like to do isn't what you are going to be able to do, or that you are a few miles behind mentally where your body is on the road.
How do you focus, grip that reality and the possibility and get in gear to get it done. When the help is there that you say you want, that you feel you need, how do you utilize it without getting lazy, without taking so much advantage of it that just steps away.
Life is not that opaque... its like the age old joke of the man in a storm who is amidst a storm and refuses to leave his home, throughout the process of it being slowly overcome by rising water he turns to his faith insisting that God will take care of him and save him if its not safe then turns away a vehicle, a boat, and lastly a helicopter. Of course he parishes in the end and when he gets to the gates he asks his Maker, why did you not send me a message or save me... the response comes back is I sent a vehicle, a boat, and a helicopter, and since you seemed to be looking for Me I brought you to see Me.
Sometimes we simply can't get past ourselves and our own idea of what the solution to our problem might be.
