Blowing open a new door
Today has been full of things such as riding in a car with the windows down and the fall air rushing in, talking about fireplaces, eating Chinese food, having a cup of popcorn shared with me by a lovely woman, laughter, sadness for struggling friends and even a little resentment that creeped in when a remark reminded me of someone who had treated me badly some time ago. All in all, the balance of the day has been good. I questioned my moment of focus on that resentment as my mind pulled up a memory of being treated badly, but it was such a tiny part of the day that I felt only growth and refreshing as it passed. It's not only true that when one door closes, God opens another door. It's also true that God opens all the doors and windows and lets the air of His Spirit rush in and sweep us right on to the next big adventure. I can't wait to see what comes next. I hope your day has also been full of an inrush, a big wind, a clean sweep.
