It is full of Psalms about dark places and deep waters, and ends with Isaiah 43:2, "When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers they shall not overflow you". I am glad you are never alone, even when it has felt so.Bronwynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00888936435698990677noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8170736184290277644.post-5256540522579969042010-08-07T10:38:30.507-06:002010-08-07T10:38:30.507-06:00I just read your blog: the utterly apt timing of t...I just read your blog: the utterly apt timing of the James Taylor lines, " Home, build it behind your eyes / Carry it in your heart / Safe among your own" -- oh, you just can't know, Karyn, how much I needed those lines right NOW. <br /><br />Love, your friend<br />Jane (still searching)Hane2SO4https://www.blogger.com/profile/07639215323522507006noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8170736184290277644.post-11281932814675662522010-08-06T14:30:45.107-06:002010-08-06T14:30:45.107-06:00i wanted to comment on your post, but found myself...i wanted to comment on your post, but found myself crying too hard to type anything...i so needed to read what your dad spoke on - that the ending of the psalm really wasn't an ending. so much brokenness. so much pain "and yet"...love those two words.<br /><br />i'm so sorry that you've experienced so much pain yourself - it's hard to understand the "why" sometimes, but despite all of it, and even if it doesn't feel like it, Jesus has used it for His glory. before i began to get to know you, He used you to provide a place of comfort and peace, especially in these last 8 months. your tea house has come to be a "home" for me. and i am so thankful that you've allowed Him to work through you.kimberleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12804672126005078796noreply@blogger.com
