Word Filled Wednesday

 

What drew me to this verse and imagery, is that I’ve been dealing with writer’s block for the past few months.

What started as a short sabbatical, has turned out longer and in the meantime, between finding the words to write, I’ve been busy with, well, daily life.

Through it all, I find myself lifting my hands and heart to God in Heaven, in cries of prayer, asking for help to get through this dry spell as I feel far but yet close to Him.

Do we have moments like this in our lives?

When we are walking close to Him and then find ourselves, not so much off the path,but wandering, searching for Him, while knowing He is near and we are close, but it’s just a matter of patience.

My family and I went on a hike one afternoon, just out and about to get out and we went down a trail, that we hadn’t been down before.

For awhile, the path we were walking was clear and defined, and we had no question where we were going and  we knew we had little chance of getting lost, because we were in a park that was well used, but  eventually, the path that we were taking, started to disappear and become less well-defined and more blended into the grass that surrounded us, it was hard not to get “slightly nervous”.

On the surface, we knew that the path would pick up again, but it was nervous for awhile that we would find our way again.

We did, without a problem; A portion of the path had been obscured and we could hear people off in the distance, so we would never truly be lost, but it was just having that faith that we would get back to where we were.

The same with right now…In a lot of ways, I’m still learning, like we all are, that we do get back to where we are, it’s a matter of trust and faith to let things play out like it needs to be played out, not for our glory, but for Him and He isn’t going to take us down any paths, that He isn’t going to protect us or lead us safely through for His name and glory.

It’s hard right now for me to deal with the writer’s block and  more than anything to get out of this “drought” that I feel in, but He will lead me out of this. I just have to have that faith and trust in Him for He never abandons and He may seem quiet, but He’s not…He’s there.
