My heart breaks for those held captive. They have stepped outside my will and have become ensnared. They wake up from their slumber to find themselves in darkness. In repentance they reach for the light; the light that I provide and find me waiting. They seek again my saving grace, my river of mercy. What of the circumstances that have transpired? There is a cleansing period; a time of sanctification.
“The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he has sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised.”
Luke 4:18
