Continuing from R’s Rue I don’t know if I’d mentioned that for awhile I have been listening to Pastor Rich Villodas. His sermons have been a balm to my spirit. I’m given hard hitting truth, but it a way that teaches, but doesn’t condemn. No fire and brimstone, but solid truth. I recently ordered his book, The Narrow Path. And as I’m in church today, the second song talks about the narrow way being hard, but it being the path I want to take. I should have realized my worship experience from song to preaching would turn me upside down. Turns out, I didn’t have a clue what my soul would endure. The sermon being about was it ‘worth it’ to follow God without question, without doubt, understanding waiting is not comfortable, but a part of the process. Was I willing to acknowledge its worth despite my years of waiting. I didn’t have time to contemplate this until the song that allows people to come forward, and make decisions. It was during this song that I remember what I had wanted for...
so amazing poem!
ReplyDeleteAt times of difficulty, we all tend to lose hope somewhat. This is natural. It is our human nature speaking and acting at it does. Prayers are the answer to faltering faith, because when we pray we are in fact affirming that we believe there is Someone there listening; we are not talking to ourselves.
ReplyDeletePraying for you, Regine. God bless.
