I am devastated. My heart hurts for hundreds of people I am surrounded by most of the year, because it is a true case of the blind leading the blind. People are running into walls, stumbling, falling down, and burning their hands again and again. The only way these things will stop happening is if we let God remove obstacles, guide us, lead us, and discipline us. Change needs to happen, but nobody can see that. Or if they do, they're not willing to ask God to work and move, to help that change occur. Or they're afraid to admit that everything is not okay.
In the midst of the confusion, lies, and injustice, there is nothing but darkness. There can be no darkness among that which is surrounded by light, especially in the Light that is Jesus Christ.
Doesn't that say something?
Where is He in all this?
Isn't that what needs to be addressed more than anything?
Help, Lord God.
' "This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but men loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil. Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that his deeds will be exposed. But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what he has done has been done through God." '
[John 3:19-21]
A bit harsh, yet legitimate at the same time.
