Bearing this with you in heartfelt and hopeful prayer. Here is today's excerpt from Mary Tileston's daily devotional (recommended by you, which I love and am so grateful for!): "Be merciful unto me; for my soul trusteth in thee: yea, in the shadow of thy wings will I make my refuge, until these calamities be overpast. " Psa. 57:1 May God swiftly calm the calamity with another merciful miracle today. Love you both.
Sunny,
I am of course praying for David's whole body healing - fervently.
I am also praying for your beautiful heart. I ache deeply, as is appropriate, for the road Jesus has asked you to walk and the things He is asking you to know... to know about David, to know about Him and to know about yourself.
I know your heart loves travel, France in particular. I also know your heart loves music. So today I send you the lyrics to this stunning Hillsong - Behold. I will be listening, singing, praying, longing, witnessing the living dynamic movement of God embracing you with His magnificent, calm heart of love, strengthening you to pour out your fear to Him, to weep with Him till you can rest in His calmness and be full for this minute.... then again for the next.
I love who you are. I love you.
your sister, carol
BEHOLD by Joel Houston/Hillsong
Behold the Father’s heart
The mystery He lavishes on us
As deep cries out to deep
Oh how desperately He wants us
The things of earth stand next to Him
Like a candle to the sun
Unfailing Father
What compares to His Great love
Behold His holy Son
The Lion and the Lamb given to us
The Word became a man
That my soul should know its Saviour
Forsaken for the sake of all mankind
Salvation is in His blood
Jesus Messiah
The righteous died for love
It wasn’t over
For He is the risen One
Then sings my soul
Then sings my soul
How great Your Love is
How great Your Love is
Behold I have a friend
The Spirit breathing holy fire within
My ever present help
Speaking truth when I can’t find it
Light up this broken heart
And light my way
Until my time on earth is done
Oh Holy Spirit
Breathe in me like kingdom come
Oh Holy Spirit
Let Your work in me be done
Then sings my soul my God
He who was and is to come
Prepare the way
Until the work on earth is done
Watch as the clouds He rides swing low
Lift up the sound
As He makes our praise His throne
Behold the Lord our God will lead us home
This chapter continues to have its challenges...one after another. The unknown can be fearful, and my sense is that is where you find yourselves today. You're both good about acknowledging your feelings to each other and you get a chance to do so, once again.
Know that I send you lots of positive energy and love,
Mims
Stay strong and just know you two are still in my thoughts, everyday. Sunny thank you and good job on the constant updating. Love.
