Shut the door behind you. Shut out the distractions. Shut
out the naysayers. Shut out the doubters. Look away from the ones trying to
lead you astray. Turn from the ones who only offer negativity. And darkness.
And despair. Look for the helpers. The ones who offer light. Look for the ones
who have grounded themselves in the promises of God. The ones with the
unshakable faith. The ones who see the impossible with their eyes but believe
in the possible with their hearts. There won’t be many. There won’t be a crowd
willing to believe that the God of yesterday is still the God of today. That He
still longs to help. That He still keeps His Word. But the faith of Elisha. And
Abraham. And David. And everyone single one who came before us and trusted. And
stood up. And offered hope. Look for the ones with that kind of faith. The
world will offer you a multitude of answers to your pain. But if the answer
isn’t rooted in Jesus Christ, then it’s not an answer at all. It’s just another
problem waiting to weigh you down. Surround yourself with a cloud of witnesses.
Open your Bible. Sing songs to the Lord. Focus on your faith. And shut the
door.
