Hard Questions

"In the dark, men break into houses,
but by day they shut themselves in;
they want nothing to do with the light.
For all of them, deep darkness is their morning;
they make friends with the terrors of darkness."
~ Job 24:16-17

Bringing wickedness and sin to light is not comfortable. Asking yourself and other people hard questions about where you are spiritually is not easy. Fear, shame, and guilt may cause you to shut the sin away, but it will come out in the dark times. Ask yourself and your friends where your heart is, and have them ask you, too. If you are uncomfortable talking about your heart and your spiritual state with the people close to you, you need to do it all the more! It is just like shining a light into the darkness: the light reveals the hidden things
