After the Storm

Fall went by so quickly, rushed by the winter winds. It's either that winter came early or, winter is yet to come with a greater force as compared to what is it now.

Sandy came and gone, but she left us with a mess to deal with. Could have Sandy been the one that brought an early winter? Lower Manhattan looks like an abandon apocalyptic world in the night, with the power outage. Apart from lights from the city workers and police, other parts of the outage area appear to be so dark and eerie that the brightest thing in sight is actually the sky at midnight. I was reminded by movies like 'I Am Legend' and the recent 'Chernobyl Diaries'. 

So much has been happening in the last 2 months, I don't think I even have the time to process it all. I hate to leave things as it is unfinished, unidentified, unexplained. Yet there is another force that spurs me to take what I can and leave the rest. This may very well be God telling me something. Even as I see a clearer direction in life, I am sensing how God is bringing up issues that I need to deal with before it is too late. Refining process as someone put it, what better time than now.

I was reminded again today about all that I am going through and having a taste of the life that I will be venturing into is somewhat exciting and scary. I was also reminded how hard it will be and there will be times that I am will be really tested if I am doing this with a genuine heart and sincere motive.

Has the storm got anything to do with what I am feeling today? I personally don't think so, but it is however a  unique thought that God could have made recent events to shape the circumstances.
