Figuratively, and in some ways- literally, I have been raised from the dead. My once blind eyes now can see. My issue of blood has been dried and healed. My crippled body is restored to health. In absolute truth I can stand as a witness that my heart, mind, and body has been healed through the power of Jesus Christs atonement. I have been granted strength, energy, and vision to know that the heartaches of life can be swallowed up in the expansive beauty and glories of hope for eternal joy. Heavenly Father has granted me such hope, when I thought there was none. Hes opened my eyes to dream of brighter tomorrows. Hes given me strength and optimism to move forward and work hard, so that I can see my dreams fulfilled. Indeed, Love so amazing, so divine, Demands my soul, my life, my all. As I wrote in my journal this morning about a matter of concern dear to my heart, this song (linked below) played subtly and quietly into my thoughts. I smiled thankfully to be reminded of a song which I havent heard for decades, but I felt moreso grateful because the song helped refocus me to move forward in faith, even when things dont seem to work out in the timing or manner that I think they should. Miracles have taken place in my heart and home, and they can for you as well. Let us pray each day that we have the courage to live as God wants, and the faith to follow the road less taken, because that will make all the difference. When we offer Him figurative control of the pen that writes in our book of life, God, our Heavenly Father can help us co-author life stories of peace, joy, and grateful contentment. Of these things I testify! Christine === If the Earth could give its witness; All creation shout its praise; If the continents and oceans spoke to man of their devotion; Would mortals doubt Him so, if all were now made known? If the faithless of the ages, were to feel his healing power; if the eyes and hears he opened might be theirs for just a moment; Would it soften hearts of stone if all were truly known? Face to face so few were in that place when heaven sent Messiah to reclaim this fallen race. If I could stand atop the mountains and sound his name in every ear; If I had power to tell his story, like the angels have before me; would more sins be swept away if the world could sense the debt he paid? Face to Face. Ill seek Him all my days. He means more than life to me. Death cant take that away. If I cant convince a world, Then perhaps Ill reach a soul, As i tell of how hes changed me. How I wait for Him to take me. (take me home) Then Ill worship on my knees and kiss once wounded feet. Though he knows of my praise, One day Ill tell Him face to face. https://youtube/watch?v=ub8DEl11tHA#t=16
