The Bible says we are to walk by faith and not by sight, but that day at the airport, I was definitely being led by what I saw. Sometimes I find it incredibly easy to hear God speak and to believe Him, and other times, worry and anxiety make it extremely hard to hear His voice. How quickly my emotions had swayed back and forth in those few minutes! My mind shifted back to calmness, and even joy as we started catching up.
I pulled out my cell phone and started to dial her number, then I heard a car honking and saw her pull up to the curb. What had happened to her? Had she been in an accident? Did she forget me? From peace to anxiety in less than three minutes, and nothing had changed-nothing except my mind. Not more than three minutes had passed, but I realized I was now anxious and worried. I spotted what I thought was her car and took a step forward, but the car went past me, and there was a stranger in it. To my surprise, she wasn’t there yet, which was odd because she’s the kind of person who’s never late for anything. I was calm and relaxed and thought of the great conversation we would have. I reached the curb in front of the airport, where my friend was coming to pick me up. From the book Battlefield of the Mind – by Joyce Meyer
