Sometimes, it is just hard plain and simple in our spiritual journey. You read scripture and pray daily, and nothing seems to be happening. Honestly, that is how I have been feeling the last few days. I suspect part of it has been certain major life events but there seems to be more going on that I just don’t understand. So as I sit here alone on this October morning I wonder if today is the day that this all becomes clearer. All I know about my life is that the only thing that brings me pure joy and peace is talking about Jesus. Nothing else comes close.

When we wake up each day, we can consider what answers we will need to get through that particular day. Frankly, that is a waste of time and energy. I know you would be better off if that time was spent reading scripture and praying.
I know many of us find it easy to excuse the lack of time for reading scripture and praying. This brings up one question. I think this is best expressed here
1 Thessalonians 5:2
For you yourselves are fully aware that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night.
So it’s a given that the end times are near so wouldn’t make sense to be in scripture and prayer instead of looking for answers elsewhere?

As we go through life we can often feel confused and have a feeling of hopelessness. It is something that we all deal with from time to time.
However, there is good news because no matter what you may be facing God never changes.
I think a way we can look at it is when a pole vaulter is in a competition and they go from round to round the bar gets raised higher and higher until no one can make it over the bar.
There is a song entitled ” God On The Mountain” that God brought into my life and my most difficult time and my hope is that it will bring all of you a sense of comfort.
