Many thoughts to ponder.
Life has been up and down these past many weeks. But God is amazing and as strong as ever.
What causes our melancholy do you suppose? It makes for a time of reflection. Looking back, taking stock, moving forward. A reevaluation of goals and purpose. Returning to the Standard for our living.
He gives joy. Such joy.
Many of my days have had heartache in them but it's the good kind. The heartache that is part of transition.
And the joy is ever-increasing.
God comes through, makes Himself known and so evident in our lives - even in the tiniest of things. In the things we think may not matter at all.
How do you capture the moment of all that is happening around you? What words do you say to describe something that can't be defined?
The goodness juxtaposed against the pain.
This IS how life is lived. Knowing more of God makes you more aware of the trouble that is of this world. And shutting it out is not an option. So many things in life that pull on our hearts, making them heavy. But the joy that comes from the Lord, living by grace, gives us hope. We have hope as we look to eternity. To the day He returns for His bride and we are rejoicing forever.
So, all this being said, I leave you with two songs today. Two favorites that have different flavors to them but both enjoyed today. Back to back, actually.
Enjoy...
