Confusion can be a gift from God. Looking back on instances when I felt desperately in need of an immediate solution, I can see that often I wasn't ready to act. When I became fully ready, the information I needed was there for the taking.
When I know too much about my options before the time is right to exercise those options, I tend to use the information only to drive myself crazy. That's why today, when I am feeling confused, I tried to consider it grace. It may not yet be time for me to act.
I think that dealing with confusion can be like cooking. If the bread isn't done, I don't take it out of the oven and insist it's time to eat. I let it finish baking. If the clear solution to a problem hasn't shown itself yet, I can trust that it will appear when the time is right.

Today's Reminder

I will thank my Higher Power for whatever I experience today, even if I feel troubled or confused. I know that every experience can offer me a gift. All I have to do is be willing to look at my situation in the light of gratitude.

"Everything has its wonders, even darkness and silence, and I learn, whatever state I may be in, therein to be content."
