When I was young, I used to pass along this well-worn adage to those facing tough times:
God won’t give you more than you can handle.
Oh, if I could only take those words back. If I said them to you, please forgive me. I’ve made a horrendous mistake.
I love that God will do ANYTHING to get our attention and draw our hearts back to Him!
My friend, Chrystal, shared that her 14 year old Yorkie had passed away. She was heartbroken. All you furry pet lovers know that those creatures have a way of snuggling up in the deepest crevices of our hearts. In the midst of her pain, she looked up and saw this.
Recently, I was in the Boston airport.
I watched a Delta gate agent roll out with a snack cart to the gate. (This is usually a sign something has gone terribly wrong with a flight and they’re trying to keep disgruntled flyers placated.)
Eyes perked up, then fell hard. You could hear an exhaustive sigh flood the room.
There’s a trend that’s been building for some time.
I’m wondering if you’ve noticed it, too.
We used to have some notice or warning when something was about to happen.
I made an incredible discovery when I was in Israel recently!
I spent several weeks doing deep research throughout the tiny country and geeking out studying at the world-class Israel Museum in Jerusalem.
One particular display caught my eye: two ankle bones pinned together by a long metal nail.
Friend,
Do you ever need a story of joy to fill your soul? I sure do! Just last week when I had a difficult day, this popped in my inbox and lifted my spirits. I bet it will for you, too.
Margaret,
