It was the year that wouldn’t end. Not 2020. A personal path to persevere. Cities separated us for work. It became the year we discovered how much we needed each other. My daughter and I lost ten pounds. My husband found them. If it could break, it broke, or flood, it flooded. If it was alive it died, or I ran over it. We even squeezed in a trip to the Emergency Room, learned to deal with a neighborhood abductor, and experienced a personal stalker.
Before the end of this madness, my son contracted Bell’s Palsy. Stress caused him to lose the ability to control his face. (Did I mention we were preparing to move only God knew where because my spouse was jobless?) I don’t know why it surprised me to start a day in this season rescuing my 100-pound non-swimming dog out of the pool dressed for my daughter’s award ceremony and moments later, experience my first flat tire. I was stuck in a season of misadventure.
When my roadside assistant arrived, he stared at my vehicle and explained he had no idea how to change my tire. His wasn’t the response I expected from a man whose job is to change tires, but my vehicle is quite large. And for my sized problem, his sole suggestion was to find the manufacturers’ manual and start reading. I did. Somehow, a disheveled version of myself made the ceremony before the end.
Our only hope for gaining momentum when we feel like we’ve got a flat tire that won’t fix is to entrust ourselves to an authority greater than us. We need someone who understands our make-up, someone who can walk us through every bobble or disaster. For the believer, that authority is evident through the Living Word of the Bible. The way to get on the road again is to read it. Take in what is written as if our existence depends upon it. And allow it to impact who we are.
Too often we want some new and improved method for getting unstuck, instead of turning open a book we don’t understand or, to be honest, enjoy. We look for shortcuts for moving ahead when there is one way forward.
Today, learn a lesson from Yours Truly. Open your Bible. Resist the resistance. Instead, receive what He willingly gives to move you on to the next place.

Stuck. Know the feeling? Disappointments, problems that linger, and other confining obstacles leave us with life circling on a perpetual merry-go-round rather than treading a path toward a destination. Thankfully, stuck is not a place God desires His children to remain. So, how does a person get unstuck? Take five days to discover biblical strategies for gaining momentum and getting off that mental merry-go-round for good.
