all tied up

I saw before my eyes.. my hands tied together behind my back... there is plenty of scripture about being tied up and beaten or killed.. sometimes it was the intention yet it was not accomplished... it seems that the enemy is forever trying to get us so that we cannot do anything.. we are instead stuck with no hands.. but some times.. being tied up and powerless comes from God...

ezekiel 3: 24 Then the Spirit came into me and set me on my feet. He spoke to me and said, “Go to your house and shut yourself in. 25 There, son of man, you will be tied with ropes so you cannot go out among the people. 26 And I will make your tongue stick to the roof of your mouth so that you will be speechless and unable to rebuke them, for they are rebels.

I often wonder if I should have been silent long ago and now I am being forced into a season of silence.. with my hands tied so I cannot do anything to help someone.. maybe some times people have to be able to see and accept for themselves without any help from someone who can see...

who knows.. maybe I am the one who will see at the end of the silence... at this point... only God truly knows the outcome.. we can think and imagine and even be shown.. but the truth of what we think will be shown by God in the end..
