you're struggling yourself to find contentment and joy in the day and your circumstances.... friends are hurting and suffering all around you and there is nothing you can do but love them. pray for them. and point them back to truth.
some points of a long race are full of adrenaline and vigor. other spots of the race, you want to give up and quit running.
persevere and keep pursuing. that's our job. stay the course.
even when it hurts.
even when His plans don't make sense in our world.
we trust HIM - not our emotions.
we call on HIM - not the things of this world to soothe us.
we cry out instead of keeping it in.
we count joy over worries, gifts over struggles....
we remember, we recall and we recount ALL of his many blessings and love and ultimate gift at the Cross.
we give him all we have, which might not be much at all for the hour, but in obedience we give it over to him.
and there is grace in that offering. and the having a refuge for the hour. for the day.....for the rest of our days.
