Wait for the Light
Canon 5D Mark ll, 50 1.2L, 3.2 aperture, 1/1000 shutter, 1/125 shutter
My heart is bursting within me. I feel alone, unsteady, unsure. I cannot find my way tonight. As the thick darkness moves in, threatening to hide me from the light, I wait. I can hardly steady my breathing, but still I wait, remembering, going over again what is true. I wait for the One who has promised He would never leave me. My enemy whispers familiar evils. He tells me I have been forsaken, left on my own. Fragments of the old cling to these lies like splinters of metal to a magnet. I plant my feet and my soul in the soil of truth.
I will wait – He will come – He is here. Though my world shifts and throws me off center, He does not change. He never changes. What He has said He will do. Who He has been He will be. How He has loved, He still loves. He is God and there is no other.
He is Here
Psalm 23:13,14 ~ “I remain confident of this: I will see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living. Wait for the LORD; be strong and take heart and wait for the LORD.”
Psalm 130: 5,6 ~ “I wait for the LORD, my whole being waits, and in his word I put my hope. I wait for the Lord more than watchmen wait for the morning, more than watchmen wait for the morning. ”
