What does it mean to walk away from something? This connotes a certain degree of defeat when I say it out loud - but can it mean something else?
I am walking away from darkness. I am walking away from what holds me captive and bound to my baggage and shame. I am walking away from what keeps me from sleeping soundly at night. I am walking away from relationships that I sink myself into and then start to drown into their pit of despair. I am walking away from a life that leaves me lacking in peace, kindness, joy and contentedness.
I turn to You for it all. When I seek Him, walking away is NOT defeat, but triumph. When I seek His presence, walking away is less the defining action and more about what and WHO I am walking towards.
Embraced in His everlasting arms, I turn to Him and I am saved.
