Obscurity

 There is an obscurity of faith.  You believe, but feel nothing.  Words seem empty.  Dogma does not uplift you.  It can happen to any believer.  I could be at a “sacred” sight, such as before a tabernacle in a Catholic Church.  And my heart and soul feel nothing.  This is faith in obscurity.  It comes and goes.  To some it may never come, but to many it does, but they don’t talk about it because it embarrasses them when around “believers.”  It can happen in a recovery meeting.  You go and sit there, believing in the process, the power of the meeting, but you feel nothing.  Don’t let obscurity of faith keep you away.  It might be a test of willingness, and humility.
