living life with my eyes wide shut

So much of the time I want to do things my way. I think I see what the best way is to handle something, I rely on what I can see for making choices.
And yet what I think I see often isn't a true perception, things change, my eyes are cloudy with what I am thinking about..I go the wrong way because it "looks" easier.

It is time for me to close my eyes and let God take the lead.

No peeking.

One day at a time, one choice at a time, one conversation at a time, one prayer at a time.

Ever played that game where you're blindfolded and being led around by someone who has their site and it's a metaphore for trust? That's what this feels like. And while I still manage to stumble at times I know that God is right there ready to catch me and guide me. That's a great feeling.
