I was in the midst of a dark cave today. A conversation between men and women all of whom had their minds made up concerning their view of God. We talked... we typed... we wielded our intellect as knights wield their swords. And the more and more we talked and typed the darker the cave became... until it was quite black. My vision grew faint as did my soul. Pupils dilating until they busted out of their constraints... still dark. "You fool!", they shouted from the shadow now engulfing the space in which we spoke. Still dark... so dark. And then so suddenly, like being snapped out of a dream into consciousness, a light appeared. A friend came from out of the darkness and kept this lonely soul company. He said...
"There are only three types of people; those who have found God and serve Him, those who have not found God and seek Him, and those who live not seeking or finding Him. The first are rational and happy, the second unhappy and rational, and the third foolish and unhappy."
He went on to say other things that I'm certain only I could hear and when I think back I wonder if only I could see this friend that stood along side me. God brought him to my side when I was in need.
