When I was a youth minister I used to love the games where you put roadblocks up in the room, blindfold a student and watch them flounder around while team mates yelled at them which direction to turn to reach the finish line. Cruel? Maybe a little but this was a trust exercise that at the time I believed we all needed to experience. And, well yes, I found it amusing.
I hope all of you out there that are watching me as I am blindfolded, floundering through the roadblocks that is my life, are finding it amusing as well. The one thing that I ask. If you are near the finish line please keep yelling directions to me.
Trust is a crazy beautiful thing. I am so thankful for all the coaches, friends and loved ones in my life that I know would lay down their life me as I would for them. I have no idea what is in front of me and I am not sure which direction I am supposed to turn to keep from stumbling over that stupid chair that someone put in the way, either way its teaching me something and i am ready to learn.
