Who Will Comfort Me?

Asking the question...



Who Will Comfort Me?
Melody Gardot

My soul is a weary and beaten down from all of my misery

Oh Lord who will comfort me

My soul is a weary and beaten down from all my misery

Oh Lord who will comfort me

Got a hold on my heart that keeps me bound

When the whole wide world is free

Oh Lord who will comfort me

Got a hold on my heart that keeps me bound

When the whole wide world is free

Oh Lord who will comfort me

My home is a wreckage

A family drowned in flight and poverty

Oh Lord who will comfort me

My home is a wreckage

A family drowned in flight and poverty

Oh Lord who will comfort me

God of All Comfort

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort,  who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God. For as we share abundantly in Christ’s sufferings, so through Christ we share abundantly in comfort too.
 2 Corinthians 1:3-5  English Standard Version (ESV) 

reminders are good

I love the way Oswald Chambers says it...

“I have chosen you” (John 15:16). Keep that note of greatness in your creed.

It is not that you have got God, but that He has got you. 

My Utmost for His Highest, October 25, 837 R

The Best of all Meanings

His resurrection means

that He has the power to convey His life to me

The Easter effect means...

It's possible to be brave 

Sometimes even though it is painful, change will take you to a new community outside the one that has unknowingly let you go. 

Easter = Hope...

Hope + Faith = Anticipation

You + Me = Company
 I choose to hope in the power of the Easter Effect.

Painting with rain and sunshine

This morning I woke up with the Spirit singing into me.  It happens quite often actually.  I noticed God painting yellow intermittent in showers.  Yellow beaming through tears.  Couldn't help but join in...

O Love that will not let me go,
I rest my weary soul in thee;
I give thee back the life I owe,
That in thine ocean depths its flow
May richer, fuller be.

George Matheson

You + Me = Company

What's usually on your mind when you wake up?

Blue is a colour

Blue is a colour.  Today I am blue.  As grown-up as I am, couldn't shake it.  

My mother-in-law was diagnosed with cancer Boxing Day 2010.  She said she was going to be brave to the end.  I watched and learned the hue of Brave.  How rare and valuable it is.  She passed away on her birthday leaving me a gift -- The 101 on Bravery.  I'm praying God will allow me a clairty of mind & willingness of heart to help me grow into the brave suit.  In the meantime... blue and red = purple; blue and yellow = green.  I'm going to see if I can turn my blue into Lapis Lazuli.

You + Me = Company
What colour are you today?

'Bout Time!



Yesterday involved a day trip across the line to take a friend of ours to the Bellingham Airport.   

  



If you have to sit in traffic at the border, pick a beautiful option...

Since we were there we stopped in at Fred Meyer's.  
SwH said, "You pick up the smokie buns while I hit the washroom." I got thro the checkout - he got a little side-tracked.
