Waves Come In and Go Out<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Washing Us Free.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Psalm 119:114<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

You are my hiding place and my shield; I hope in your word.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

John 6:40<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

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.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Words of Grace for Today –<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How do you find that precious slice of time-place-tempo-song that gives you<\/p>\n\n\n\n

everything to live for,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

that gives you hope,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

for another day, week, year, decade?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the lives of those who have found a way to move from desperate-despair-loss-end<\/p>\n\n\n\n

to become someone for someone, and maybe for a few more than one or two, maybe even for us all?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the words that inspire one to dig deep?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Or in the faces of sounds defying the obvious end, despite the great loss getting into tomorrow from here?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Or in the safety of laughter and joy with children not yet stained by the short-harsh-brutish?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

in the turmoil that is inevitably life,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

the only hope for all kinds of life is<\/p>\n\n\n\n

…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

knowing that God is with us, for us, and<\/p>\n\n\n\n

more than eager to redeem us, renew us, and give us renewed life each day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
