Sometimes life sucks. Hopes, plans, routines – so easily derailed. The direction we thought we were heading in – the path suddenly crashes away into an abyss like in those adventure movies. We stand in shock and then face the fact that we have to divert, turn back, take the long route. And off we wearily tread. It’s the Mines of Moria for us.
Sometimes we, I run out of words. So I turn to others’ instead.
Here’s some that have helped recently:

And I reread and repeat the old truths to make them my own:
‘I’m absolutely convinced that nothing—nothing living or dead, angelic or demonic, today or tomorrow, high or low, thinkable or unthinkable—absolutely nothing can get between us and God’s love because of the way that Jesus our Master has embraced us.’ (Romans 8. 38-39)
I don’t like or want these challenges but at least I don’t have to face them alone.

Thank you for the encouragement Ash. It’s a rollercoaster ride when I’d rather be on a lazy river.
God bless

Amen! These are, indeed, challenging times. It’s like our country has an autoimmune disease and keeps attacking itself :(. Praying for you as you walk through each day.

sometimes we just need to shut the world out and let God speak in the quietness left behind eh? 🙂
