In my mind I think of a wilderness as overgrowth, a jungle or a forest. But it can also be other things, like a bewildering situation.
In their day, The Cathedral Quartet sang a song about the wilderness.
“How did you feel when you came out of the wilderness, leaning on the Lord?”
Today I felt like I came out of the wilderness. I had my final chemotherapy.
I leaned on the Lord every feeble step and oh, what a difference.
He was there all the time, holding my hand. It could have been worse.
People need Jesus in times like this. When cancer invades a life, knowing Him makes a huge difference. He is precious in our weakness.
Whatever your wilderness, learn to lean on Jesus.
Psalm 107:35 He turneth the wilderness into a standig water, and dry ground into watersprings.
