Wilderness Wakeup

What do you do?
What do you do when you wake up in the wilderness?
Fully aware that no matter how small your part,
you still had a part to play in ending up there.
And also fully aware that the only thing you can do
is rely on Him.
For streams in the desert.
And manna from heaven.

But you continue to circle.
Just like the Israelites.
So close to the promised land.
And unable to make your way over that line.
Into the land of milk and honey.

Do you try to be at peace?
Listen to the voices constantly telling you,
that everything will be okay?
Even when you feel like your world is falling apart.

Do you try to work your way in?
Listen to the voices telling you that once you are content,
the Lord will bring you out of this time?
Even though you know that in reality it has absolutely nothing to do with you.

And absolutely everything to do with His Glory.
