Elijah: When The Light Goes Out

Anxiety is not just a modern affliction, but a spiritual battle that even biblical heroes faced. Through the story of Elijah in 1 Kings 19, we see how God meets us in our darkest moments. Anxiety is a signal that our peace is under attack, but it's also an opportunity to draw closer to God. The beautiful truth is that God doesn't always speak in grand, dramatic ways. Instead, He often whispers to us in the silence. This teaches us the importance of cultivating silence and solitude in our spiritual lives. It's in these quiet moments that we can truly hear God's voice and find the peace that surpasses all understanding. As we navigate our own anxieties and fears, we're encouraged to approach God's throne of grace with confidence, knowing that Jesus empathizes with our weaknesses and offers us His perfect love and peace.
