I had an interesting dream last night. I was in a service truck dangling off the top of a building. I had called for help, but had no clue where the guy was who was driving, what was holding us up, how we got there, or how to get out of the situation.

And then I woke up.

I was a bit disappointed because I'd really like to know how I got out of that mess.

But you know, life is kind of like that. Often times we find ourselves in a total mess. We're not real sure how we got there other than we know some really bad choices were made that looked like good ones at the time. And unless some external power else helps us it is most likely we are going to crash and burn.

It's times like this I like to remember Romans 8:28: We know that in everything God works for the good of those who love him. (NCV)

Oh, and I hope it's not a prophecy. Just to be safe I won't be riding in any service trucks driving around the tops of buildings this week.
