Don't Kindle Your Own Fire

Isaiah 50:10-11 Who is among you that feareth the LORD, that obeyeth the voice of his servant, that walketh in darkness, and hath no light? let him trust in the name of the LORD, and stay upon his God.  Behold, all ye that kindle a fire, that compass yourselves about with sparks: walk in the light of your fire, and in the sparks that ye have kindled. This shall ye have of mine hand; ye shall lie down in sorrow. 

When we find ourselves in a dark place we must continue to trust the Lord and rely upon Him. When we find ourselves in a dark place it is not a time to kindle our own fire and walk in the light of that fire.   We need to stand still and continue to look to God until He shines His light into the situation. If we seek to come up with our own solution and try to do things in our own strength it will lead to sorrow.
