In a land of ‘nothingness’, I sit with complete indifference. Not the sun nor the moon, the birds or sky inspire this woman’s dry soul.
Is this depression? Am I physically sick? No….this is a spiritual dryness that gives me grave concern.
My hope comes from the words of Maya Angelou as she remembers the words of her grandmother . They had some pretty tough times and she remembers her saying, “Mama don’t know what she’s gonna do so mama’s just gonna step out on the Word.”
I know this is a season. I know that Jesus experienced a need for renewal. I read where he would go off to be alone and rest and pray.
So, today, I rest and pray. And, I step out on His word. This barren season – like winter – will turn to spring and I will have learned to wait. This wait will renew my faith and I am praying that these words somehow – will renew yours.
