light of darkness... 31/90
my life has recently been surrounded by dark clouds… in the aftermath of divorce, losing my very best friend, and trying to make a go at life on my own… all alone… it has been very dark this past year…
this past week… ive slowly begun to truly let go of the reigns… stop holding on so tight to something that is no longer mine… it has been very rainy and cold here in Michigan this week… a vast difference from one week ago when temperatures hovered in the 90s… Michigan is like that though… life is like that…
… but… this just makes adjusting to the day-to-day routines that much more difficult sometimes…
as I drove into work today… i heard this… solomon said, “the Lord has said that he would dwell in a dark cloud…” 2 chrnls 6:1
I have been living under and within this dark cloud… I want the sun to shine on me again… I know it will eventually… but, first the rain needs to fall… for everything has its natural place… and allotted time…
… I know in my heart that it is time to move on…
I’m reminded of how God is hovering over me… with me in this dark cloud… I know it is so he can be close to me… so he can easily reveal his light… so I can shine on… God's grace is revealed through the light that stems from the darkness… and, I know that it is only in this darkness, when my faith is tested, regained, reminded, rekindled, reinforced…
I am grateful for this understanding…
from everlasting to everlasting… he will never leave me… nor forsake me… for his is the light… his dwelling among us in the darkness of the clouds… he shines on…
love wins.
