I had the skin prickling much joy feeling at church this morning and the amosphere was amazing, as it always is when many people gather in the presence of God. I've been praying for someone very dear to me and while I was driving home a picture came into my head, I saw the person smiling and chatting with a look on their face that I haven't seen for a long time.You are the everlasting GodThe everlasting GodYou do not faint You won't grow weary You're the defender of the weakYou comfort those in needYou lift us up on wings like eagles.
Have four birthdays really passed
Since we spoke
Since we shared a smile
Or listened to
'A different beat'
Together.
Missing you lots, Happy Birthday babe.
Love Aunty Sue x
It was truly fabulous to go to church this morning and not have to worry about rushing off home to study, I hadn't realised just how much difference it makes to be centered on God and not have anything else on my mind.Col continued on the theme he began last week, which is, "why we are sometimes in the wilderness" meaning that hard things come along and we struggle, it might be a few days or a few years, but we've all been there and I imagine we've all wondered why we have to go through very difficult times. I can only talk from a personal point of view here and say, at the most difficult time in my life, I felt at my most calm, most looked after and most loved. I don't know why I had to say goodbye to Chris, but I do know that my coming out of the wilderness is shaping me into a different person and somewhere down the line God has a plan for me. I embrace that thought.
