Dark or Not


I decided to stop waiting for the benefit revealing itself in the distance or the feeling of comfort of His answer, but was willing to walk more steps in the dark, believing that the God who promises would meet me in due time.  It is a fiery, invigorating, and freeing experience to go forward anyway, similar to being in a very dark room where hearing and touch seem more sensitive and alive when sight isn’t operating.  Often when I can’t yet see Him, the sense of His Spirit presence is increased. 

We must stop needing to feel good or expecting to see the evidence before we obey and follow and get up and walk.  He has gifts waiting for those who trust Him and we find He IS peace.   What’s so important anyway about this thing of feeling something before we do what we know is good?  I know we need healed and restored, but can’t we realize that compromising with bad stuff is never going to get us there?  We sometimes keep making horrible choices.  Let’s stop that.
