I dug myself a pit by making bad life decisions and when I finally hit bottom, God was there like he had always been, but he used my dark pit to speak to me. <BR/><BR/>I used to have panic attacks and that heavy blanket of fear and dread would always come when it was night. I would stay awake for fear of going to sleep and never waking up. But what if God was using that to speak to me but I was too afraid to realize it?Trinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14328823688208661097noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5339493307883061160.post-6162419575039954032008-06-22T21:54:00.000-07:002008-06-22T21:54:00.000-07:00I've been there, He has spoken to me in the thick ...I've been there, He has spoken to me in the thick darkness many times. It is amazing and wonderfully refreshing.

Pleading, punching, panting for breath; until all is smothered under crushing darkness. <BR/><BR/>Then you got me in the end, or rather God had me from the beginning, with the reminder God sent His Son to die for me. Okay, so maybe my adrenaline subsides enough to concede that Code Adam was working for me all the while. Next, I learn God is speaking to me through the darkness. <BR/><BR/>Thanks Jon, for being like a Wal-Mart employee who dedicatedly played his role in a Code Adam for me. Should darkness bury me once more, I will be a bit braver and will ask God if He is again speaking purpose into my life. I'm grateful for this guidance toward the Light.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5339493307883061160.post-49576245830348727962008-06-22T14:56:00.000-07:002008-06-22T14:56:00.000-07:00sigh.......powerful........sigh.......<BR/><BR/>powerful........Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5339493307883061160.post-87210706046435582932008-06-22T10:49:00.000-07:002008-06-22T10:49:00.000-07:00Thanks, Jon, for encouraging me in my dark pit.
