Pain and despair are not options in life.  Even with the love of the Father, the sacrifice of Jesus and the presence of the Holy Spirit we can struggle with pain and even fall  into despair.  But remember "truth and love" always win! “When I despair, I remember that all through history the ways of truth and love have always won. There have been tyrants and murderers, and for a time, they can seem invincible, but in the end, they always fall. Think of it—always.” ― Mahatma Gandhi From Griffin, Misty.

LOST Lost in wonder and reverence of a God beyond yet near So lost in amazed praise there is no room for any fear Looking yet not seeing, yet seeing without looking A reflection I can receive only when seeking The light fills my heart and over floods my soul Refilling and completing my hearts eternal hole Music unwritten and not sung by weak humanity Flows within my soul to praise it sets me free Beyond hands and knees my soul lifts and falls down My trembling hands seek for the hem of His holy gown Where I am lost in whom I am seeking The place lost to the One for whom I’m looking Is that bright flash a smile from His wondrous face? Is that warm sensation from God’s own embrace? Beyond feeling and beyond all human emotion Swept away beyond even love to humble devotion I cannot see the face I so long to see My human frailty and sin do constrain me Human words no longer hold any value Limiting all my heart and soul has for You Lost in the wonde

PAIN I know pain my old friend For pain is my old friend We have lived life endlessly Lived life so painfully There is no day without pain My own eternal strain Not always the same place Not always seen on my face Some days worse than others Under pains darkest covers Sleep evade and rest it flees Steals away my times of ease Rest cannot hold it at bay For pain has come to stay Does this pain belong to me? Why, O Lord, cannot I flee? Is this my own fleshly thorn? To be this lifetime borne? Is God the author of this pain? Is it because of my own stain? Questions many answers few When will this pain be through? Is God too small or pain too large? Does pain my strength enlarge? Will answers decrease my pain? Will they decrease my stain? Is it forgiveness that I need? Or His laws should I heed? Or is pain a part of life? Lived in such varied strife? If not our own than others Jailed in pain like b

UNITED NATIONS (AP) — Some 18,000 children die every day because of hunger and malnutrition and 850 million people go to bed every night with empty stomachs, a "terrible indictment of the world in 2007," the head of the UN food agency said. James Morris called for students and young people, faith-based groups, the business community and governments to join forces in a global movement to alleviate and eliminate hunger — especially among children. "The little girl in Malawi who's fed, and goes to school: 50% less likely to be HIV-positive, 50% less likely to give birth to a low birth weight baby," he said in an interview Friday. "Everything about her life changes for the better and it's the most important, significant, humanitarian, political, or economic investment the world can make in its future." Morris, an American businessman and former president the Indianapolis-based Lilly Endowment, one of the largest charitable organizations in the U

About 5 children each day die of neglect and abuse in the United States. About 18,000 children die each day because of hunger.

Denomination We seek our Hope in denominations. We find our fellowship in denominations. We find our identity in denominations. We are divided by our denominations. But we are the body of Christ. We each play a part in Christ. But we are united in Christ. We are one in God through Christ.    To be in a denomination is not Christ. To be in a congregation is not Christ. To be in a study is not Christ. To be in fellowship is not Christ. Worldwide unity is only in the Church. Eternal unity is only in the Church. Sharing Christ with all is the Church. Offering hope and love is the Church 2/4/2020
