Dark tunnels

When the train you are riding on goes through a tunnel and it gets dark, do you throw away the ticket and jump off?  Of course not.  You continue to do whatever you are doing at the moment and trust the engineer.

Tunnels, for the most part, are generally not real lengthy.  One major exception would be the Chunnel that connects England and France.  As a kid I always like it when we were on a trip and got to go through tunnels.  For some reason I always thought that was kind of neat, although I have to admit I always wished we could go around whatever mountains the tunnels went through instead of through them.

Life is kind of like that isn't it?  We experience dark tunnels every once in a while.  Stuff happens to us or around us.  Stuff we didn't and don't expect.  Sometimes it's as if we are in a dark tunnel with no way out.  But there is.  Just as you trust the engineer of the train, we have the option to trust God....to make Him the Engineer of our lives.  He will always bring the light at the end of our tunnel.
