The Psalms have always been a huge comfort for me as well. As well as the few people I could talk to about what was going on without them dismissing it as a lack of faith in God or something - they only made me feel worse about everything.
Dear Brethren in Christ,
Thorns in the flesh persist and have kept me from posting.
As ever, I hope in the healing purchased by Christ's stripes will become manifest in our earthly days as well as in His Eternal Kingdom!!!
As for a weekly topic, perhaps request for fav. Bible verses on a topic like Deliverance or Healing or whatever topic seems most fiitting for us keeping the faith in spite of afflictions?
Gospel JN 7:37 On the last and greatest day of the Feast, Jesus stood and said in a loud voice, "If anyone is thirsty, let him come to me and drink. v.38 Whoever believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, streams of living water will flow from within him."
Beloved Brethren in Christ,
The gift of the indwelling of the Holy Spirit can empower each of us to let "living water" flow out from us. Sharing Biblical Truth with each other and those yet to believe in Christ can 'refresh' weary souls.
The world's media can take up space but not point us to the source of healing: Our Lord Jesus the Christ!!!
No matter the physical afflictions, we have opportunities to share the Acts 3:19 "times of refreshing" from Our Lord. Anytime we help renew faith and certain hope in Jesus, we are refreshing sisters and brothers in their earthly journey. Rather than allowing your encouraging work be pigeon-holed as 'preaching to the choir', rejoice that you serve the brethren Christ redeemed!
Though I may ramble in this wee hour, surely the Goodness and Truth from the Bible can be a refreshing for one willing to receive His Gifts!
