I found myself humming Oceans, Hillsong United, while reading this:
“Spirit lead me where my trust is without borders
Let me walk upon the waters
Wherever You would call me
Take me deeper than my feet could ever wander
And my faith will be made stronger
In the presence of my Savior”
I am loving this series, as you well know! I savor each post. I am a bit behind because I want to be relaxed and quiet and savor each writing and I don’t get much time like that.
Thanks, Vicki! I appreciate your encouragement so much!
Shannon, thank you for sharing at The Weekend Brew. I love your words and this especially spoke to me, “Doubt and his ugly friends stand as shadows obscuring our vision of reality. They want us to see the job loss, but not the opportunity right around the corner.” I am choosing to look for the opportunity in my season of loss. Have a blessed week.
I’m visiting for the first time from Weekend brew. You are a beautiful writer, Shannon, with a unique style! I really like Romans 5:2-5, which shows us that suffering leads all the way to hope (with good things like endurance and character inbetween). Blessings!
Thanks so much, Laura!
Thought I’d say hi. I might be gettin better at this blogging thing. Still workin on how to be a good friend. You still inspire me. I look forward to every day this month. Sending a hug more than three thousand miles… Praying for you.
Aww…this made me smile big! I was thinking of you just the other day and am so glad to hear from you! Bless you, friend…
Amen! Praying in agreement with you!
Oh how I wish we could meet up at Kaladis and talk on these lines. Good words, friend.
This is just beautiful, Shannon. I love your last line: “Hope is a powerful fuel, and when combined with truth, it turns doubt to ashes.” Thank you for sharing your thoughts today. And blessings from Indiana.
