Mt. Everest, The Highest Place On Earth<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

But Not The Closest To God!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Psalm 66:12<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

You let people ride over our heads; we went through fire and through water; yet you have brought us out to a spacious place.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

2 Corinthians 4:9-10<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

… persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed; always carrying in the body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be made visible in our bodies.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

…<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Words of Grace For Today<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

…<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I was much younger, I had two older friends, a married couple, who kept suffering the same loss, over and over again. They lost their glasses. I experienced their searches a few times before I realized that most often they had their glasses in a pocket or even on their head.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That\u2019s us when we search for God. God is always with us, night and day, though God doesn\u2019t allow our expectations to determine how God is with us, or how we can know God is there. We certainly don\u2019t need to go find God, not even on a mountaintop, though sometimes after being on the summit we see life and God and all God\u2019s wonders more clearly. We get a bit closer to God\u2019s view of us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

No matter where we end up in life, through fire and water, persecutions and exiles, God is always with us, giving us the abilities to show Christ through our hardships<\/p>\n\n\n\n

and our joys.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
