Making It Through The Night
At some point in our spiritual journey, we are all destined to face what the ancient mystics and seers referred to as “the dark night of the soul.” This profound period of spiritual eclipse and desolation disrupts and distorts the divine light of the SON (as distinct from the “sun”) in our lives, casting shadows over our hearts and obscuring our spiritual vision. In the Book of Isaiah, Chapter 21, the Edomites found themselves plunged into such a dark night. The prophet Isaiah, with his words both timely and timeless, offered them, and us, a beacon of hope and clear guidance on navigating through these shadowy times. His message is a reminder that even in the deepest darkness, there is a path forward illuminated by faith and perseverance.
