There comes a point where we find that we do not want to know what is right. We know, but we hide out conscience. I find that I have been hiding myself in the business of my life. I hide myself in good things, I hide myself in my abilities, my thoughts, my actions. I show myself off to be a good person, I show myself to be a hero to some. In all reality I am a good person to some people, but in the end, we all eventually are reminded of the skeletons in our closest.

We make ourselves busy, we find ourselves in other people’s business, we gossip, we work, we play, all this just to hide our darkness. The beautiful thing about the light is that it gets rid of the darkness, but we have to be willing to find what is hidden right now. Eventually we lose the choice to willing find what is in our darkness and we find them unprepared to deal with it.

The quietness is painful, since we all find what we want hidden.

“ In repentance and rest is your salvation,
In quietness and trust is your strength,
But you would have none of it.”

Isaiah 30:15
