God Stands Right in the Middle of Darkness and Brings Us Light. Credit: Flickr-thundershead
God is teaching me some really rich things at the moment- so personally rich that I can’t explain what he teaching me with mere words. But, through my cleansing, much healing and new thinking is being born. It’s like a beautiful meteor shower. All these incredible things just keep whizzing by my brain – and it’s a beautiful light show.
One such piece of matter that is coming front and center is how we are to shine His light into darkness. I think I’m finally figuring that equation out. I’ve got a few things that have caused me fear my entire life and God knows it. The last few nights before I’ve dropped off to sleep the Holy Spirit has been whispering to me to bring Him into those feelings and situations – that I should not leave him out. In the past, they’ve sacred me silly and thus, I didn’t want to let anyone in, not even God.
But, God has called us to handle our fears this way. He wants to know everything about us and free us from strongholds and bondage.
- When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” John 8:12
- “A man who walks by day will not stumble, for he sees by this world’s light.” John 11:9
So no matter how dark something appears to you at this very moment and for me, some of my friends have some pretty heavy situations on their hands right now – that’s when we especially need to shine His light on the situation. He’s the only one we can trust to see us through. He’s our Father, our healer, our friend and our help through the darkness.
So dig out that flashlight and turn it on. And let me know how things turn out.
In His Guiding Light,
Cindy
