Perspective and Prayer Request

I am thankful that the Lord's mercies are new every morning. There was a time when I couldn't have experienced that - a new day. One miserable day seemed to roll into the next, but not so much anymore. And I got a reality check.....
This morning I read about Heather - she is one of the super talented ladies behind the Homeschool Blog Awards. She just found out she has cancer, likely in her brain. Please pray for her and her family. These are surely scary days for all of them. Pray for her healing, the wisdom of doctors, for the Lord to help her with the sense that this is not fair. It doesn't seem fair.
This morning the revelation was this - life is too short to allow insecurity and discouragement rob us of our days. How can I get it so twisted in my feeble little mind?

Lord be with Heather today.

  1. the reason we can get it so twisted is that we are human. we're real, and it happens to everyone.. :o)
    but think of it this way, even though we do allow insecurity & discouragement to rob us of days, hopefully they are few and far between. think of those who allow it to rob them of their lives.

  2. Thank you for the heads up on Heather. I have visited her blog in the past but not recently. It definitely puts this mere teardrop in the ocean of a life, in
    perspective!
