There have been a handful of times in my life when I have felt like I was standing in the middle of a busy station watching everyone go in different directions. They all have a calling, a purpose or a passion to take them on the next journey.
I stand watching.
Not knowing which direction my next step should be. Not sure of where the road leads for me.
I stand watching.
Lovers heading in one direction. Professionals heading down a different path toward their next big deal. Families laughing down the road of memories.
I stand watching.
The happy girl is taking another tunnel with many following her. People slipping by me to follow their given or chosen path.
I stand watching.
Not daring to take another step.
Not sure.
Wondering.
Watching.
Tonight, I feel stranded in the middle of the station of life........
wondering....
which way to turn....
I have been the lover hand in hand. I have been the professional. I have definitely been the cheerful one who has many friends along her way.
Yesterday, I would have said I was any one of these and I would have fervently told you that I was following His path....
Today, I am standing.
I am watching.
I am lost in a storm, and I desperately need to feel His love and gentle guidance.
Desperately!
So, I stand watching.....and waiting.
I love how you wrote this...Powerful with the repeated line and sharing what you are watching. So much emotion. We have been there.
