Bridges to Light

Illuminating Paths to God's Infinite Grace and Light


The Quiet Teaching

I will forever give all glory and honor to God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit. But some days on this walk—it’s hard. It can feel lonely. Not because I don’t have Him—I know He’s always there—but I believe that before big shifts or breakthroughs, we often go through what I call “quiet teaching.”
And oh, today is so quiet.
There are days when God’s signs are everywhere—His presence feels so heavy on you that you pray it never goes away. Then suddenly, all goes quiet. I believe God gives us these moments so we learn to truly miss Him. He doesn’t want us to grow complacent, to stop seeking Him. So He pulls back—not to harm us, but to draw us closer.
There’s nothing like that feeling when someone you love returns after being away—the rush of joy and love! Have you ever felt that with God? That’s how I feel when He seems distant for a season, and then His presence floods back in. It’s overwhelming. It’s beautiful. It’s a love that surpasses all other loves.
If I could be addicted to anything, it would be His love. I cannot get enough. I chase it. I run after it above all else.

The Mystery God Revealed
Right now, I’m in the quiet with God—but He’s still teaching me. Recently, He reminded me of something I wrote down last year after hearing it in my sleep:
“David had the key—it’s hidden in Solomon.”
I didn’t understand it then, but I knew it mattered. So I wrote it down. And now, God has brought me back to it.
David loved God with all his heart. Scripture calls him “a man after God’s own heart” (1 Samuel 13:14). David worshiped, danced, trusted, and poured out his soul before the Lord. I believe this was the key—his wholehearted love for God.
Before David died, he appointed Solomon as king. When God asked Solomon what He could give him, Solomon asked for wisdom and knowledge (2 Chronicles 1:7). God granted it—but Solomon didn’t ask for love. Over time, Solomon’s heart drifted. He built altars to other gods. Can you imagine how that grieved God after all He had given him?
So what does this mean? I believe Solomon had the key, but maybe he didn’t understand it. And I believe it’s hidden in Scripture—in the Song of Solomon. That book isn’t just about romantic love; it’s a picture of deep intimacy—a mystery of God’s love for His people, hidden in plain sight.

The key is love. Not just loving God when we need Him, but loving Him every day, in every moment, with all our heart. That’s what David had. That’s what God desires from us.
