the edge

It's amazing - how many times God has taken me to the edge where I was SO certain I was just going to jump off; I mean, give me another 3 minutes and I'm out of here, I'm done, gone - and He jumps in and pulls me back to comfort. It's like thinking "there is no hope" - I've literally thought that - "There is no hope" and then just before you're last ounce of hope evaporates, God saves you. At least He has for me - I've never actually taken that step off the ledge - so close but never actually had to take that step.

It is important to accept where you are right now for being the place you need to be right now. Too much look into the future and/or the past will leave you wanting something more than what you have now - when really, if you take and embrace what you have now as part of the process for something greater than yourself, you'll be much more if not completely satisfied.
