a Whisper…dark places

“There is always room for my light to shine in the dark places of your life. When your mind is filled with concern, doubt, or grief, you may look to the light of my word for comfort and for truth so that you will find encouragement.

To believe in me is to trust me in all areas and aspects of your life. You cannot keep part of it for yourself in an effort to manage or control on your own. Because I see all of it, I want you to trust me with all of of it, even the part that you may want to control yourself.

By faith you can expect me to move over your circumstances, even if the ways in which I will do that are not clear to you. When you pray, my Spirit is released to take action and your spirit is empowered to trust. We are partners and we both have our roles to carry out when working together in order to get through the things that you are dealing with. I count on you to do your part as you trust me to do mine.

You are not alone in dark places, even when you feel lonely. You are connected to my Spirit within you. I am a constant and steady companion. I will not abandon you. My light shines in you and will cover your darkness like the noonday sun. You will get through everything because of my great love for you. I will take care of you.”

I am a devoted follower of Christ who believes that when we have ears to hear, God will speak to us. He not only uses His word through the Bible, but he uses the Holy Spirit to communicate with us in many different ways, but mostly in the ways He knows each individual heart will hear Him. This blog is simply about sharing the whispers that the Lord has spoken to my heart during quiet times with Him. I give Him all the credit for the words shared on this site. If there is any encouragement for you, as there has been for me, the blessing is from Him. I pray that all who find this blog will hear his voice in these Whispers.
