Winning Through
The Bible says that the Lord is near to those that are broken hearted so I’m believing he is near me. Yesterday up as I spent time with God I found myself very emotional and I was reminded of His grief. What it must have been like for God to watch His only Son die by the hands of the very creation He had made. I have watched someone I loved die and I have never felt as helpless and hopeless in all my life. It was like my heart had just been torn out and now 8 and half weeks (59 days) on it is still painful beyond words. I have to work so hard to occupy my mind with things because thoughts of Jill cause so much distress.
I wondered today about Gods heart as He viewed Calvary. How broken He must have been and how He must have loved you and I to allow it to continue through those dark hours when all of hells fury was unleashed upon Jesus His Son. Its no wonder Isaiah 53 says He is acquainted with grief. He understands first hand what its like because he endured it as well. I rest today in the hands of a God who understands, endured and won through. May we win through today.

Hi uncle phil
What a place to be - in the hands of our Almighty God - no place like it.
I remember when I wasnt well few months ago you and aunty Jill came to visit me and pray for me and I remember clearly her telling me to use this time to draw close to God and rest in His arms of love. For that I am ever grateful as there is nothing like feeling the closeness of God and His comfort.
I pray today that as you rest in the hands of God you will feel His everlasting arms of love holding you close, holding you near (know that wee song?! just be glad you can't hear me singing it, stu says I'l never make it into the choir!!)
With Him as your comfort you will win through!
Proud of you.
Love you very much
