morning training

[Steven Bliss]

I took the dog on an early morning walk today. As we began the walk we heard
the sound of a train on the near-by tracks. Over our frequent visits I’d
come to realize there are two parallel tracks.

We both find it special for our own reasons. It was not much later and we
heard a southbound train too. Not much time later a third train had passed
over those tracks. It caused me a bit of puzzlement, as there had been a
train sitting on one set of the tracks. It was there when we began our walk.

In my mind I was trying to figure it out. How could so many trains pass by
with one currently sitting still. While I thought I figured it possible if
one of the trains we heard had stopped there, but we never heard that
slow-down and loud creaking which occurs when the do stop.

But then train number four for the morning came by. It was then I realized I
was being taught a lesson. I need to not limit things to natural conclusions.
With Him all things are possible. We need to allow him to train us in His ways.
