Good Morning!

I woke up early this morning thinking about grief....Rejoice in suffering! For me.... suffering draws me closer to God which gives me full confidence that I will praise, rejoice and cling to Him through sadness and joy... through laughter and tears. How about you?

Do not surrender your grief so quickly

Let it cut more deeply
Let it ferment and season you
As few human or divine ingredients can

Something is missing in my heart tonight
That has made made my eyes so soft
And my voice so tender
And my need of God so absolutely clear.
