"Lord... give me the gift of faith to be renewed and shared with others each day. Teach me to live this moment only, looking neither to the past with regret, nor the future with apprehension. Let love be my aim and my life a prayer." ~Roseann Alexander-Isham

Cracked Lenses

I seriously love the way GOD speaks through reading. As I was writing an update to my email list (you all reading this) I took time out to have my quiet time last night. I really liked Our Daily Bread for October 3, 2007. You can click on the link to the right and read it in its entirety if you'd like, but this is what stuck out to me in this place I feel I am in presently.

In life, pain often functions like cracked lenses. It creates within us a conflict between what we experience and what we believe....As we turn our eyes to the Lord in times of pain and struggle, we will experience His comfort and hope in our daily lives. He will help us to see everything clearly again.
