DEVOTIONAL WEDNESDAY

Novels typically present visual representations of a story’s premise or themes, often through weather, setting, or events unrelated to the characters. While writing my latest novel, I sensed that I had missed a symbolic point. So I asked God to show me what it was.

Almost before I finished uttering the request, it came to me: the stallion.

Of course, “the stallion” means nothing to anyone else, but it meant everything to me as the author crafting that particular story world.

The book opens with an encounter between an injured stallion and the hero who just happens to be injured himself – more internally than externally like the horse. But the situation was the perfect picture of what was going on inside of the man.

However, that quick revelation to my heart and creative nature carried even more weight than the answer to a literary dilemma. For it brought to mind Isaiah 65:24, a verse from a passage describing a future “new creation” and the people who will live there.

“It shall come to pass that before they call, I will answer;

and while they are still speaking, I will hear.”

God knows us so completely and intimately, that He can send an answer to our plea before we are finished forming the words. What comfort I find in this.

In spite of all our social distancing these recent days, nothing can distance me from my good and loving God. Nothing can separate me from His attentive ear. Praise God – He is greater than any boundary, challenge, or injury I might face.
