Leaning on My Beloved

 

 

I need your prayers, friends. Please don't ask for details - just pray and believe. This has been one of the hardest years of my life . . . so much death and sorrow.  I've never known such grief . . .

I know that God works everything together for my good because I am called to His purpose.

 I am being drawn closer to My Beloved through every pain and sorrow. I'm leaning on Him and clinging to this promise from His Word: 

 What the righteous hope for will end in JOY.

Proverbs 10:28a  (CJB) 

This beautiful poem is a message that has soothed my soul as I cling to Him.

The broken way

Is where we often walk

With grief and weight

That rest heavy

With confusion

And lances the

Heart with pain

Yet it is there

That we find Him

The One who has

Walked this road

Who offers His hand

To take us through

This thin place

Where we feel

Brittle and a bit lost

Until sacredness

Overwhelms and

We find ourselves

On holy ground

Lost in His love
