Kept in the dark

“No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven,

nor the Son, but only the Father.”

 

Matthew 24:36




 

KEPT IN THE DARK

 

Kept in the dark means to deliberately refuse to give information to keep someone uninformed about a particular situation. This is a metaphorical comparison to being in darkness.

I love Spring and watching life below the surface of the earth push towards light after a harsh winter. One of the earliest flowers to show is the Lenten Rose which is a resilient flower erupting into bloom to signify the start of Lent. Lent is the forty-day period before Easter where Christians reflect on what Christ has done for us.

As Christians, this is a specific season when we can deepen our relationship with Jesus with some choosing to give up something. This is a wonderful for us to  deliberately spend time in God’s Word so we can intentionally reflect the light of Christ so no one will be kept in the dark.

Just as the flowers will stay in darkness without the sun, we too cannot bloom with the fruit of the Spirit without God’s Son in our life.

Hi, my name is Kim Johnson.  I am a Wife, Mom, Sister, Friend, and Grandmother.  I have lived in Virginia for the past 25 years but my roots are from North Carolina where I grew up hearing idioms.  My children said I should write these things down so I took it to a deeper level and connected them to scripture to show how God has continually revealed himself in my life.  
 

You may be wondering where "Blooming With Jesus"  came from. My inspiration came from my grandma who loved me unconditionally and spoke these idioms to me throughout my life. Through these I have been able to blossom in my faith and grow closer to God each day. My hope is as you read these you too will be able to grow in your faith.
