These are the times that try men's souls... This is an empowering message for a discouraging time.For a moment it makes sense to acknowledge the darkness, but the bulk of this podcast is about resisting it rather than dwelling on it and there is an important difference! Because we cannot resist what we fail to acknowledge, but we do not defeat it by marinating in it. We must be careful not to allow the darkness to overcome us. It is written: do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good. And it is also written: the light shines in the darkness and the darkness comprehended it not.Meaning, that God is calling you to be a light and warning you that you will not make sense to those who are in darkness, until after they are convinced by the self evident nature of your light. They will understand when they join you.The battle between light and darkness is one of conversion. Like the game of Othello, darkness tries to jump light forcing it to change it’s color. But light should respond by refusing to turn, even when it’s jumped. And then by multiplying itself rather than becoming discouraged and behaving overwhelmed. Because make no mistake, the state of being overwhelmed is a behavior. You are only overwhelmed when you give up. And so the only thing we should be failing at, is failing to give up!
