Waves
Yesterday about 5 o'clock another wave of grief hit my soul. It has been by far the darkest deepest one yet. All evening all night and now that morning has come still no let up. I have just commenced week ten in this horrible valley. Psalm 84:6 calls it the valley of Bacca (valley of tears).
Sorry folks I have no words of encouragement today just grief and unbelievable pain and sorrow. I have been singing through my tears this morning. "Lord you have my heart, Now I will search for yours. Sometimes God is just hard to find. Value your prayers.
Love yas

morning Phil, i remember u mentioning a song you liked from the hillsong CD, well heres the words to another one thats on the same CD,I really find the words comforting yet powerful and would love to share them with you.
'Hide me now
under your wings
cover me
within your mighty hand
when the oceans rise and
thunders roar
I will soar with you above
the storm
Father you are King over the
flood
I will be still and know you
are God
Find rest my soul
In Christ alone
Know His power, in quietness
and trust.
Love you loads.x LT
Hi Philip, Just want to say how much I appreciate your openness and honesty. It is a real priviledge to be able to walk some of this journey with you through this window about your experience. It takes me back in my own life and you're right it can feel so lonely in a crowd. I remember feeling that the sun was shining down on everyone else and I was stuck in the shadows and I thought I'd never be rid of that deep pain in my gut. BUT GOD was with me in that place even though I wasn't always aware of Him and He understood my pain better than anyone else. Tears were a release and were part of my healing but at times I just felt so worn out. I remember going out in the car and just roaring and crying... anyway I wrote some poetry and one of the lines went like this: "no grief too deep for Your touch" ...and so I'm holding onto that for you today Philip. Praying for you that you'll know God's comfort, love and strengh especially today. That He will just wrap you in a blanket of His love and comfort like only He can. That you'll know His protection and that God himself will go before you in all the things you have to do. If you feel at rock bottom, just know that the rock bottom holds firm and secure and I'm trusting God to find you right where you're at. God bless you and give you His peace. Praying hard for you today! Beryl

Dear Philip... We're praying with all our might that the '...Lord (who) is close to the broken hearted and... those whose spirits have been crushed...' (Psalm 34 v 18) will be sooo close to you... We love you and just want your storm to settle...
