A mentor once told me that we spend our lives in one of four places: just heading into a dark tunnel, in the middle of a tunnel seeing no light at the end, at the end of a tunnel just ready to head out, or in the sunshine. If we find ourselves living in the sunshine, we will eventually head back into another tunnel. This verse has encouraged me in my times in the tunnel: “Trust in Him at all times, O people; Pour out your heart before Him; God is a refuge for us” (Psalm 62:8; NASB). This pic coming out of a tunnel on the Cliff Walk in Newport, Rhode Island reminded me of my mentor’s words. We can trust the Lord, even in the middle of the tunnel.
