Then comes the uncertain

Just when you thought you were walking in assurance and were just about to reach that much awaited destination, the Lord takes you through a period of uncertainty. It is when what you thought you knew was logical suddenly makes you think that perhaps you may have just misunderstood. It is when you thought you have put yourself in the best place to make the events that take place to work for you suddenly comes to a halt. It is when you thought the path ahead of you was clear suddenly becomes dim. And the Lord tells you to keep walking and hands you with a single light with just enough brightness to enable you to see what is immediately before you but not far enough to see what is ahead of you. When all but the Holy Spirit’s gentle voice to guide you, and those familiar ‘little notes of promises’ that JC drops within the depths of your heart keeps you going - taking those cautious tiny steps. When your everyday depends on that voice you know now so well from the intimate times you have spent with Him. These are the critical times when your identity in Christ is challenged. When what you said, “ ‘I AM HIS BELOVED and that’s more than enough’ “ , goes through a test of fire if His love for you is really more than enough.
