GOD IS GOOD
Everyone…thanks for your kind comments…everything in the “situation” mentioned worked out very well, and God was more than faithful in His answers to prayer….as He always is.
Of course, the benefit is not only growth in closeness to Christ, and experience in learning to lean on and trust in Him ever more deeply, but also the direct benefit of His hand in protecting and guiding those involved, and the “witness” of His faithfulness.
Apologies for not giving the “good report” of what God is doing soooner, but am currently in a stretch of 18 to 20 hour days, and that isn’t leaving much of me for other than work, sustenance, and repose (albeit brief).
With Job I heartily proclaim “…I will yet praise Him.” (more later)
Bless Him
Jim

Give thanks to God for He is good; His mercy endures forever.
Glad to hear the good report. Sorry to hear of the long shifts.
I relate all too well.
All the time.
This song is groovy

How true Jim. My husband and I have had this very unwelcome guest in our home lately, fear. We finally got extremely tired of that guest, and had a long night last night asking the Lord to deliver us. I’m reading, “Harnessing the Incredible Power of Fear….”, I didn’t like the title, but the book is very practical and scriptural. I’m sure you could write a book with all the Lord has taught you. Thanks for passing so much of it out here for us to benefit from.
Hello friend. I haven’t been around Xanga in so long, I feel like a stranger. But your name caught my attention as I was reading over my e-mail subscription digest and I saw about your “situation.” Unfortunately, I know all about such things. Anyway, just wanted you to know that you are appreciated and I am alive.
