No Shadow of Turning

No Shadow of Turning

Author Darlene J. Conard

As the warm water cascaded over me in the shower, I pondered the idea that I might have to accept the current situation, resigned to the belief that “it is what it is. However, in a sudden moment of clarity, I heard a comforting Word in my spirit, “You don’t have to accept anything that is not of Me.”

Accepting things as they are is a basic part of our existence. We rely on the expertise and trustworthiness of professionals such as doctors, lawyers, and others in various fields. I’m not implying that we disregard these professionals’ help. But we shouldn’t leave God out.

Impossible is in no way, shape, or form a part of His character. The only impossible with God is lying.

“Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.” (James 1:17 KJV) Every object that, when in light, casts a shadow. God doesn’t have a shadow; He’s pure light.

“For all the promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen, unto the glory of God by us. For all the promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen, unto the glory of God by us. For all the promises of God in Him are Yes, and in Him Amen, to the glory of God through us.”  2 Corinthians 1:20 KJV.

Our circumstances seem impossible when we look at them from a natural perspective. That’s why we are to pray, praise, and thank Him. While doing this, we are building ourselves upward. 

Beloved, I urge you to persevere in your journey, trusting solely in God’s guidance.

He is our protector and guidance.
