I'm chewing on this: "That...So beautiful!<br /><br />I'm chewing on this: "That makes me wonder if joy is what the Spirit births in God's children when the happy has been knocked out of them by trials."<br /><br />It does seem true that so many of the most joyful people are those who have been through the fire. Perhaps it's in those times we realize we need Him the most, and then He can do His work in us.<br /><br />Thanks for stopping by my blog.

Reading not just the recent posts by Shannon, but also some older ones by Sara,I was struck by Sara's clear-eyed courage--a courage not mixed with or propped up by denial about how hard a place she's been in for so long. Sara also came across as wonderfully free from the bitterness that, more than anything else (more even than fear, I think) cuts us off from joy. It's a privilege to be able to pray for her and her family.<br /><br />i'm sorry you've had such a long and busy week: may the Lord bring you and Allen rest and joy in abundance this weekend!chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16673834639722877016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-86563362162856229.post-68876453781507079902011-09-16T22:56:20.744-05:002011-09-16T22:56:20.744-05:00Deep calls to deep.
