Going through the drought season is tough, no one would say no to that for sure.
I have been picturing my spiritual life as living in the desert, a very dry parch land.
I have been there for almost 10 years long. Just wondering if your life journey is similar to mine. You will most likely know how I feel and what I am thinking about.
The joyful season has gone past me, I missed those joyful season of my spirtual life, being so well-fed and content that I was a great help to many. I was able to do what I wanted to do -- serving others in need, reaching out to them. As I reached out to others, my heart is satisifield. My life purpose was so crystal clear with no confusion whatsoever.
Looking back, I just missed those memories. I just missed those opportunities a lot.
Looking at the dry season right now -- all I can see is negative life experience, al lthose hurts caused by people around me. When I close my eyes, I see the parchland, I see the dry desert, I am on a lonely planet.
Surely I know the presence of God is here with me, His presence and His covering angels are there to protect me and my husband. My prayers are reaching up to His ears, He heard all my heart cry, the sad and the bitter one. He sees me from on high. I look at myself and realising how fragile I am as a human being. I can only express myself this far, no matter how much I cry out, how much my tears flow down. God reserves the right to save and rescue me. God reserves the right to uphold or abandon me.
God up above is watching all humanity. He knows us inside and out. Nothing is hidden from Him indeed.
The drought season I am in.....
I am wishing it to go away soon....
I pray and I pray that God will give me grace and strength enough to go through what I need to go through right now. I know that only He can do something about it.
Only God can uphold me, only God can sustain my faith in Him, amen.
Perhaps you too are in the same boat as I.
Let us cry out to God wholeheartedly, He is listenig. He will answer us when the time is right. Let us pray for God's mercy and grace and His strength will uphold, sustain and protect us from the evil one. May we all say, AMEN.
