Shadow

You can’t run away from your shadow.  You can’t avoid it and live as though it wasn’t there.  You have to face it courageously and see clearly how dark and big and ugly it is.  You have to accept it’s there.  All these so you’d know what efforts and prayers, what struggles and sacrifices you ought to make to conquer it, lest you fall all of a sudden, brought down shocked and unaware of the monster that lay hidden all these years.

“Lift up your tired hands, then, and strengthen your trembling knees! Keep walking on straight paths, so that the lame foot may not be disabled, but instead be healed.” – Hebrews 12:12 TEV

Are you searching for hope? Download the e-book today - "Where Hope Can Be Found". The thing about hope is that it’s a positive force that shines the most when it’s dark. When everything’s going well, we hardly notice it’s there. But when things go against us, when our dreams fade and when we see no immediate reprieve from our troubles, that’s when hope does its best work for us.
