Battling Darkness
Darkness swoops in like a perfect storm full of confusing emotions and problems designed to derail your mind and body from the path you are traveling.
Hiding all signs that it is coming and swallowing all options, it leaves us reeling in a state of overwhelming fear and panic.
Overtaking our common sense and ability to reason, it traps us in negative thoughts and the inability to think through the simplest tasks.
Taking over our physical capabilities and leaving us hurting from head to toe.
Headaches, muscle cramps, stomach issues, are miserable gifts given to us by this horrible storm.
Challenging our strength and will to fight, parting us with our good senses and faith in our powers to fight back, it banks on us surrendering.
It never giving us credit for the greater authority who rules heaven, the one who gives us light and strength beyond our own mortal existence, the one who carries us when we are weak, the one who fights for us when we are in a dark and scary place. GOD is the ultimate arsenal, who will battle the darkness and win every time.
We often forget that we do not have to take on every challenge that is in our path alone. We only need to turn to the definitive answer and ask for help. We have to let go of our pride and realize some things our beyond our control but nothing is beyond his.
God has been leading our crusade against darkness and evil since creation began and he continues to lead us even as the world is inhabited with more darkness than ever. In the end righteousness conquer and the darkness will fail.
