![\"Fog](\"\/mvp\/wp-content\/fog-in-the-pudding-river.jpg\")
<\/p>\nI stood at the kitchen sink.<\/p>\n
Early this morning — just before (or was it just after?) five.<\/p>\n
Carefully slurping hot coffee.<\/p>\n
Looking out the window.<\/p>\n
Drearily considering the circumstances.<\/p>\n
Pleading with God.<\/p>\n
Trying to have faith.<\/p>\n
(Drearily, God, faith — is something out of place there?!) \ud83d\ude2f<\/p>\n
When I noticed what I was seeing:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Somewhere down there in the Pudding River bottoms are cows.<\/p>\n
In the fog.<\/p>\n
They can’t see clearly.<\/p>\n
For all they know, the whole world is foggy, bleary, dreary.<\/p>\n
But the rising sun will fix that in short order.<\/p>\n
Can I believe that God sees me and my fog in remotely similar fashion?<\/p>\n
Can I believe that the Risen Son will fix my problems?<\/p>\n
Sure.<\/p>\n
I’m thankful.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
