The Light: Chapter 2

You’re insightful, and you’ve sought guidance in the right place and at the right time. Taking the road less traveled may seem lonely; however, you’ll have the only company that you’ll ever need for this journey.

Stay steadfast in your belief; it’s your compass so you’ll never actually lose your way.

Proverbs 11:14

For lack of guidance a nation falls, but victory is won through many advisers.

Until vs Forever

Glowing Bible in cave

We all hope for the following, and sometimes it’s happened unbeknownst to us.

Hebrews 13:2
Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.

Most of the time we have chosen Until compared to God. We’re mesmerized with the charismatic, fun, and joyful personalities. Well, at least until there’s destruction, pain, shock, and disbelief. Then we’re left in a dark room on our knees asking, “How did this happen to me?” Well, “Until” is intelligent; full of wisdom and knowledge. “Until” knows you better than you know yourself— better than your closest friend or family member. Also, “Until” never keeps its promises and most of the time those promises are a facade. “Until” knows the scripture backward and forwards. You can only suffer the consequences if you’re unaware. However, “Forever” protects you from the roaring lion just seeking to plan, plot, and destroy. You were born to create and for a purpose that’s unique to you. The heart, the mind, and body want what they want. Don’t settle for “Until,” lean on “Forever” and not your understanding.

So, while you’re enjoying your time with this incredible person, remember he or she is only the most incredible person you’ve ever met until they’re not. Don’t be fooled and ignore the intuition speaking to you; choose wisely and always remember: test the spirit.

1 John 4:1 – 3
Dear friends, do not believe every spirit. But test the spirits to see if they are from God for there are many false preachers in the world. 2 You can tell if the spirit is from God in this way: Every spirit that says Jesus Christ has come in a human body is from God. 3 And every spirit that does not say Jesus has come in a human body is not from God.

Jeremiah 29: 11 – 14
For I know the plans I have for you,’ says the Lord, ‘plans for well-being and not for trouble, to give you a future and a hope. 12 Then you will call upon Me and come and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. 13 You will look for Me and find Me when you look for Me with all your heart. 14 You will find me,’ says the Lord.

How Can I

 

Shelter in the storm

 

God, How Can I when there are those who don’t want me to? Some individuals get mad when you believe.

Psalm 73:26 New Life Version (NLV)
My body and my heart may grow weak, but God is the strength of my heart and all I need forever.

 

How can I? Maybe I should just join them, and my life will be more comfortable? But how can I when I follow You?

Acts 20:32
“And now, my brothers, I give you over to God and to the word of His love. It is able to make you strong and to give you what you are to have, along with all those who are set apart for God.”

 

How can I deal with the constant judgment? I’m only living the life and utilizing the gifts you planted into my soul.

Acts 18:10
“I am with you. No one will hurt you. I have many people in this city who belong to Me.”

How can I focus on You and ignore the conflicts that tear my soul apart?

Philippians 4:6-7
“Do not worry. Learn to pray about everything. Give thanks to God as you ask Him for what you need. The peace of God is beyond what the human mind can understand. This peace will keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

How can I walk the road alone?

John 14:18
“I will not leave you without help as children without parents. I will come to you.

How can I love when it’s hard to love?

Psalms 146:8
The Lord opens the eyes of the blind. The Lord raises up those who are brought down. The Lord loves those who are right and good.

How can I be okay with the person You created me to be, even though others are not okay with the person You have created me to be.

How can I love you, love the world, and supportive?

Colossians 3:12 – 13
God has chosen you. You are holy and loved by Him. Because of this, your new life should be full of loving pity. You should be kind to others and have no pride. Be gentle and be willing to wait for others. Try to understand other people. Forgive each other. If you have something against someone, forgive him. That is the way the Lord forgave you.

How can I when I have no idea what to do? I’m entirely and utterly lost.

Psalm 25:4
Show me Your ways, O Lord. Teach me Your paths.

Proverbs 16:9
The mind of a man plans his way, but the Lord shows him what to do.

How can I? It’s simple. I place all my trust, heart and soul in the One and Only. Whenever you drift to a low of doubting God, read God’s response to Job from The Bible Project. The link is copied below. The answer will align your perspective and understanding.
