Susan LaffertyHesitation.
The soul stutters. Protests weakness.
Earthen vessels live fragile at times.
Trying too hard when it’s time to be still. Waiting too long when it’s time to move.
Resisting when He says speak. Stalling as He calls me somewhere out of my current comfort zone.
Once a year, I see it.
Visual of my blindspots.
Patterns of grey and black mapped out on a screen in the ophthalmologist’s office.
In life, blindspots can creep in. And continue. Unnoticed. Never addressed.
Endangering vision and obedience.
Seek His face.
During a three-year famine, David inquires of the Lord. Literally—David seeks the face of the Lord.
In the midst of difficulty and dryness. When things seem not as they should be. I wrestle with the whys.
Then remember.
“Seek the Lord and His strength;
seek His face always” (1 Chronicles 16:11).
