If you are walking in darkness, without a ray of light, trust in the Lord and rely on your God. 11 But watch out, you who live in your own light and warm yourselves by your own fires. This is the reward you will receive from me: You will soon fall down in great torment.
as I read this I wonder how often I have felt I was walking in God's light and really I was walking and relying on myself... and not even realizing it...
I know that the deeper we get into the Lord, the more we see.. or that is the plan anyways.. LOL! I find for my own self.. the closer I think I am getting to God the less I see... I don't think this is as I think it should be.. but I recognize that when we walk by sight.. we are not really trusting in God.. when we cannot see then we have to trust Him...
I realize that the less I see.. the more I acknowledge that whatever God chooses.. that is what I want... and whatever He determines.. even if it is not according to my own desires.. I still recognize that it is best for everyone involved.. too many times I have wanted my will and it has caused disaster for myself, my children, even innocent bystanders sometimes..
it is truth that God uses all situations for our good.. but too often we go through many things unnecessarily... I don't want to endure or learn from anything that I didn't need..
lead me Lord on the path you have chosen for me.. do not let me be drawn to the right or the left.. keep me close to you and always in your will for my life. amen!
