I'm finally back after a long week in Indiana. I enjoyed my stay and did many things. Over all I was glad to spend time with family and get to know them better. God really blessed my trip and I even got a word from the Lord while I was there. But that is a different post all together.
I feel spiritually, emotionally and even physically refreshed and it's nice to be back home. As I gear up to get back into my normal routine I'm plagued with the thought of how backed up at work I am going to be. The thought of going back to that dark place makes me want to get back in my Jeep and keep driving.
Tonight, as I kept getting closer to home and the sun was setting further and further behind the horizon,I noticed how at first peoples head lights didn't bother me. As darkness crept in the lights got more and more irritating. This reminded me of how Christs light in me shines brighter in the dark places of this earthly realm.
Going back to work in that dark place is where I belong for now. I might not like it but this is what is expected of me. Many months ago I was talking to the Lord on my way to work. I asked Him what it was I was supposed to do at work and if there was anything specific to let me know. The Lord answered me right then and there with a simple answer. He said, "Be a light in this dark place." That was it. Simple enough on my part. Some days are more taxing than others but I strive to persevere. I wait till the day that I am released from this work place and can move on.

Glad you made it home safely. It was great having you stay with us. Our door is always open to you anytime you want to visit.
Glad to hear you made it back ok. We loved having you. Come anytime, you know the code.
I'm so glad you continue to ask God what he wants you to do at work. I know it's hard. The Lord must trust you with a lot of responsibility to keep you there for now.
