Not all places are the same along the spiritual journey. There are battles and there are times of rest. There are dark nights and times of consolation. The Lord brings us through the fire and through the water, and He leads us into green pastures. Let us not fight with the path but simply be where the Lord has brought us. For in a sense, all is rest.
Why am I fighting with this spiritual path? Did the Hebrew people have to swim across the Red Sea to flee the Egyptian army? No! God opened the waters before them. So why do I put the Lord behind me while I try to face the enemy head on? Has not God said, “The Lord will fight for you, and you have only to be still (Ex 14:14)?” As I let the Lord go before me He Himself blazes the path. I simply travel along, step by step.
