Isn’t it true that sometimes we find ourselves in circumstances that seem to have no way out? We are dragged down the dark path of divorce, financial crisis, the death of a child, etc. Indeed, it’s a dark and scary road to travel. And there is no map that guides us in that dense darkness.
On that lonely journey, our feet are the only companions, but they are very feeble. How long will they last until total collapse? There is a moment when you stop and reflect. You find yourself totally lost, with no sense of direction. Precisely, that is the moment when you think about the eternal.
You’ve heard the Bible stories, amazing rescues, and wonder-filled miracles. Then you realize that you only have a mental knowledge of Jesus. The governor principle of the kingdom is relation.
When you realize that eternity is in your heart. And you learned, as the children of Israel learned to feed on the lamb to stay safe on their journey to the promised land. Today the lamb is the Bible, the Word of God. And the way you can eat it is by reading it and digesting it.
When you come to this awareness, you see clearly that you do not need any map. Now you see that God is your home! And no matter how dark the journey is, there is joy.
“… weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning.” (Psalms 30:5 MEV).
By feeding on the Word of God you learned that time is not measured by what you are going through, but by where you are going.
