Black and white

The quickest way to the tube station from the house is through the wilderness. There is a small woodland that divides the two housing areas that lead to the station. The path there is unpaved. There are no sign post. The path does not appear on Google Maps. But it exist. It is there and if you walk it, it will take you to your destination. But you cannot always see your way through it. The trees and shrubs surrounding it are thick. Some cross the path and others have thorns. At night, the path appears to lead to nothingness. It is darker than the night sky. And yet if you walk it, it will take you to your destination. This is faith. Your eyes cannot see it but you have been told that it is. Just because you cannot see the path lead you to the destination now, doesn't mean it doesn't exist. I've been having trouble seeing the destination this week. Have been so caught up with the struggles on the path that I've forgotten about the end result. I was reminded this week by Jon that attitude is a testimony in itself, to yourself and to the people around you, even before there is a testimony to speak of. How you react in the midst of difficulties is a reflection of what type of man of God you are. Time to refocus on the destination.
