THE WILDERNESS OF disillusionment disenchants us from all that we perceived to be actual that in reality is not. We may groan for a time in the desert for our ‘losses’, everything we possessed, every close tie; everything earthly we count dear are made but shadows in comparison to God as He becomes our ALL in all. It is then we begin to realize we had nothing before and that through Christ alone we have everything.

– M.A. Williams
