Tomorrow
Its funny that as you move through grief you are only able to cope with today. Survival mode, I call it. In the early days even facing one whole day was to difficult so I broke them into 3, morning, afternoon and evening. In those sections I could get through and when evening would fade I would thank God I'd made another whole day. Now 13 weeks on I seem to be considering tomorrow and thats scary. Questions loom when I think like this, what does it hold for me? will I be alone? The questions seem endless. It is at this point where I know I have to cast myself upon the providence of God. I don't know if you have ever been in a place where you are hopelessly and absolutley dependant on God, this is one of those places. I wish I could tell you its a good place but its blind faith. Not knowing what tomorrow holds for me drives me into the arms of the one I know does, Oswald Chambers put it this way, "Don't be disturbed today by thoughts of tomorrow; leave tomorrow alone, and bank in confidence on God's organizing of what you do not see". Mingled with that are the words of Jesus, "Take no thought of tomorrow". These statements are easier read than put into practice but I think I'll live today and wait and see what TOMORROW holds.

...do you know the silent sorrows of a never ending journey through the pain?
Do you see a brighter day for me?
Another day? A day?
Do you wonder whats in store for me? The cure for me? The way?
Oh look down and see the tears I've cried,
The lives I've lived,
The deaths I've died...
(You say {to me})
"I will pour the water down upon a thirsty barron land and streams will flow from the dust of your bruised and broken soul. And you will grow like the grass upon the fertile plains of Asia, by the streams, of Living Water you will grow"
Thought oy you this morning as I was listening to this!
You Raise Me Up
When I am down and, oh my soul, so weary
When troubles come and my heart burdened be
Then, I am still and wait here in the silence,
Until you come and sit awhile with me.
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders
You raise me up... to more than I can be.
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders
You raise me up... to more than I can be.
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas
And I am strong, when I am on your shoulders
You raise me up... to more than I can be.
You raise me up... to more than I can be.
Hey Philip
I often think about Abraham who "went out, not knowing where he was going."
I don't know where I'm going either, but I guess we'll know when we get there!
Bless ya
