From The Depths, Day 202

Day 202

Yahweh

From the Depths of the Pit

I called on Your name, Yahweh, from the depths of the Pit. You hear my plea: Do not ignore my cry for relief. You come near when I call on You; You say: "Do not be afraid."
Lamentations 3:55-57 (Holman Christian Standard Bible)

One of the most difficult accomplishments for a person to make that is outside of Jesus/YahShua ... is discovering exactly where they are.

Abiding in the state of spiritual emptiness is so very difficult for the lost soul to recognize. They will thrash around in this life trying to gain ... whatever they think will make them ... happy ... only to find that what they thought would provide them joy is actually ... empty and vain.

The Teacher cries out,

"Absolute futility," says the Teacher. "Absolute futility. Everything is futile. What does a man gain for all his efforts he labors at under the sun?" Ecclesiastes 1:2-3 (Holman Christian Standard Bible)

How desperate and sad for one to live a life ... never recognizing the pit in which they live.

This is in The Name.
