Where Will You See It?
Waves Come In and Go Out
Washing Us Free.
Psalm 119:114
You are my hiding place and my shield; I hope in your word.
.
John 6:40
This is indeed the will of my Father, that all who see the Son and believe in him may have eternal life; and I will raise them up on the last day.
…
Words of Grace for Today –
…
How do you find that precious slice of time-place-tempo-song that gives you
everything to live for,
that gives you hope,
for another day, week, year, decade?
In the lives of those who have found a way to move from desperate-despair-loss-end
to become someone for someone, and maybe for a few more than one or two, maybe even for us all?
In the words that inspire one to dig deep?
Or in the faces of sounds defy the obvious end, despite the great loss getting into tomorrow from here?
Or in the safety of laughter and joy with children not yet stained by the short-harsh-brutish?
…
in the turmoil that is inevitably life,
the only hope for all kinds of life is
…
knowing that God is with us, for us, and
more than eager to redeem us, renew us, and give us renewed life each day.
