To my friend:

Just because your future's hidden
Doesn't mean that you lack vision.
And while your life resembles night
It doesn't mean you're a failing plight.


Don't mistake the Lord's reposturing of your dreams and vision as yourself failing, or lacking vision. He's doing something new. And first it must look like death, before it can be birthed only in His life.

To die is Christ, and to live is gain.
