What can you really count on these days? Your health, family, friends or your job? As we waited longer than usual to catch the bus to meet friends, I realized how much faith I have that the bus will arrive. Even if the bus is running behind schedule, the fact that it will eventually come is something I truly count on. When others at the stop express doubt or my family wonders if we have missed it, there is something inside that tells me to wait a bit longer and it will come. My gut feeling is right more often than not. It is reassuring in this world of uncertainty to feel confident that if we are patient and have faith, the thing desired will come. I believe that principle applies to waiting for the bus and most other areas of life as well.
