An Afterthought

So, this morning when I took Jack out, I looked to the east for the morning star. Instead of the brightness of that beautiful light, however, I only saw clouds.


Clouds obscuring what I expected to see. It was darker today than yesterday. The light was blocked.


What obscures your view of Christ? What is standing between you, hindering your relationship with the lover of your soul?


Sin. Simple as that. Sin. Pick your poison. Bitterness. Hatred. Unforgiveness. Gossip. That grudge you won't let go of....


My mug this morning has this scripture on it -


All things are possible to those who believe. Mark 9:23


Sometimes when life gets cloudy, we feel hopeless. Don't give up, my friend. Confess your sin and God will forgive you. Then the clouds that have blocked your path will clear away and you will be back to enjoying The Bright and Morning Star.


Have a good day!  And enjoy your coffee!!
