Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters. Genesis 1:2.
This verse seems to reflect how I see my life right now.
Formless, empty, dark. I am in a dark mindset that I have not been able to escape for quite some time now. I cannot think of anything new in my life that would have caused me to get into this mindset, which I think makes it worse. The things in life that used to bring me much joy, now are just a flicker of light in this overwhelming darkness. That light is a beautiful thing to see, but as soon as it's gone, it's almost like it was never there. I don't like this. I have talked with a few people about it. I have asked for prayer. I have prayed. But it's like my eyes are glazed over and I cannot see the truth.
BUT...
There is an awareness of the truth that the Spirit of God is hovering...planning and working in my life. Knowing what comes next in the Creation story gives me hope for new life to be stirred within me. Life that I can truly live out. One day I hope to be able to expand on this.
