Battles in the Secret Place
December 27, 2013

“Our battles are won and lost in the secret places of our will in God’s presence, never in full view of the world….Not often, but every once in a while, God brings us to a major turning point–a great crossroads in our life. From that point we either go toward a more and more slow, lazy, and useless Christian life, or we become more and more on fire, giving our utmost for His highest–our best for His glory.” Oswald Chambers – My Utmost for His Highest

I’ll walk in the light
The first thing I’ll do is sit
In the secret place
One minute, ten or twenty
Alone contemplating love
~
How I interpret the facts
Will determine directions
Wisdom is needed the most
We are subjective
~
And who defines love
My lived experience speaks
That’s my decision
This is subjective, I know
One life captures my soul
~
Some things are true regardless
The sun rising and setting
The seasons will come and go
Death is a sure thing
~
Who speaks to the death
What about the injustice
I will make a decision
Consider the facts
Interpret them in some way
I’m responsible for that
