SILENCE MADE EASY

Not saying something ought to be easy, but there are times when it isn't. Especially, if you are privy to some very special and secret information.

I've been going through this strange set of experiences lately. Ones where I have ended up thanks to the Lord knowing the truth about something that I otherwise wouldn't know.

And naturally it is tempting to tell someone involved with the process that I do know about the reality, but I can't. So I have tried to cope with keeping a secret that like a lot of people you definitely want to share.

What is amazing to me is to see the steps taken by those keeping this information a secret have taken so it doesn't get discovered. Not that I mind so much, it is just amusing at times to see the truth they are attempting to keep others from knowing.

The plus for me has been learning certain elements to human nature that I might otherwise not know. It gives me a small comfort to treat it as a learning process.

However at the same time, I have truly been sadden to see how some people have a dark side they can keep so hidden at times. You can look in their faces and never seen the true depths of sin that dwell within.

This current little episode is one that in reality is a time bomb of sorts. But only with regards to one person. And the others are being fitted for masks so nobody will see underneath at the truths and stress etched in their faces.

I am grateful to the Lord for having touched me with the blessing of knowing the truth, even though it seems in some ways like something out of fantasy. Something so bizare and surreal I find it difficulty to embrace at times.

In the meantime, I continue to participate as the Lord leads. Feeling in part satisfied that this is a situation where I am just a witness and not one of the players.

What I have learned is that no one can truly hide their sin forever. Those who think so will never learn the reality of how it is something God can expose even when they think they have been very clever in keeping their deeds a secret.

And it also has helped me to appreciate that there are times when just being obedient may be less appealing in terms of how we feel our live is with regards to excitement. But it may also be a cushion of security that lets us sleep with less guilt.

So in many ways, I know I live a simple life. Yet, I also know those who are dwelling in the delusion that taking short cuts in terms of their morals will somehow reap them a big gain.

In the end, God will show them that was a myth. But too much of one for them to truly learn about.
