The further that we drift away from God the more distorted our vision becomes. This drift often starts with a small step in the wrong direction into the darkness of the world. There is an interesting discovery in this understanding of the Truth and that is,”As one walks from the darkness towards the light they tend to see even more but as one that walks from the light into the darkness they tend to lose sight to the point that they can not even see themselves.”
God gives us clarity and vision in the light of Jesus Christ to see through the darkness of this world to reach the other side. Without the love of Jesus in our hearts and soul we often follow the principles of God but forget how we are to love each other unconditionally as He loves us. When we lack the understanding in the Word of God of how to recognize the darkness it is very easy to allow ourselves to fall into the spiritual traps of Satan that are in place to hold us back.
There are two distinct parts that we should recognize between the purity of the light and the confusion in the darkness. As one travels from the darkness to the light it is important to recognize that in this physical life there will always be obstructions trying to block the Way. In these obstructions we should look at them as curve balls or as temporary detours because in this walk towards the light sometimes we have to to take a step back in order to learn how to move forward. The object in the curve balls that we see is to learn the spirit of the pitch in order to bring ourselves back home. For when we learn how to recognize the spirit that we are dealing with is when we are learning the art of the game.
It is so easy in our human nature to allow our eyes to only see the the objects or hurdles that we have before us but in the vision that God gives we are to always seek the light to help us overcome the darkness. When we learn to walk with Jesus our vision lifts from this temporary world to see the spiritual test that we have before us in order to learn how to grow in our faith and how to maintain the coarse that God provides. We are to never lose hope no matter how dark things may seem and it is through our faith that God will always carry us through…amen
The lamp of the body is the eye. If therefore your eye is good your whole body will be full of light. Matthew 6:22
