Daily Prompt: Dim

The light in your eyes dimmed down as you realized what just became your life.

The fun that you desired just wasn’t worth it to be lead to this moment that made your heart drop.

You knew you weren’t going to make it out of this situation as the same person as you entered in.

You accepted only half what this meant and the other half you used to fuel you to make the best decision in the end.

The light in you was fighting with all its might just so that you could come back and be stronger than you ever thought possible.

Maybe tomorrow will be different and things will work out but right now you realize you have to fade into the background to wait until the timing is right and step out with all the hands in your hand.

  1. R New – I'm a 1959 Baby Boomer which has allowed me to see drastic changes in the Christian landscape. I grew up going to Church every Sunday, in those days the Bible still had strong roots in America. In my 20's, I participated with the Church in public meetings. There were about eight of us who would go out to a street corner or public park to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ. There were horns, a bass drum, singing, and a short Salvation message from the Bible. Suddenly, that all changed. The city passed ordinances to prohibit that type of public "solicitation." Today, it seems almost illegal to mention the Gospel to the younger generation. I retired at the age of 62. As a person living for the testimony of Jesus Christ, I always felt like a salmon swimming against the current. Work was always a struggle between trying to be a decent individual while dealing with "progressive" and "left wing" changes at the workplace. It's clear that there is a force in the world that is quietly eliminating the Gospel of Jesus Christ while making Christians look like enemies of humanity. At the same time, there is a force in the world that has power over physiology and is able to form thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. It is definitely against Jesus Christ. John 3:16 is something I always want to cling to, “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life." I know the suffering of spiritual assault that hinders a constructive lifestyle & when frustration & anger seems to be the sole option - I know we can survive through the Cross of Christ. We have a home in the Kingdom of Heaven waiting for us.

    I’ve come to accept that it is best to be fulfilled with pleasant characteristics even though the world seems to be buzzing around me like bees to honey.
