SCRIPTURE FOR THE DAY...........

Create in me a pure heart, O God,

and renew a steadfast spirit within me...

The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit;

a broken and contrite heart, O God, you will not despise.

Psalm 51:10,17

LOSS FOR WORDS.......

Those who know me know that I am usually never at a loss for words. Do you ever feel like something is lingering or hanging over you? Well, oddly enough I have been feeling that way lately and not that it means anything but it has been strange. Here lately I have been encountered with death and not sure if God is telling me to appreciate what and who I have more than anything, well I do. My 32yo cousin died from surgical complications on May 16th. It has been a very hard loss to the family but I know that God has a plan even though we don't understand. Yesterday one of my 10 week old kittens, Elvis, was attacked by a dog and was dead on arrival at the vets office. And then this morning on the way to work I heard on the radio of a woman dying in a fire at a boarding home in Jackson. Her name is Natalie Skinner and I met her one night when we were out doing street ministry in downtown Jackson. She was of my generation and in my conversation with her I learned that her life was not any different from mine except the demons of alcohol had controlled her life. She had been working on getting her life back in order and I shared with her that I would do whatever I could to help. Now I feel that she is with the great healer and like you will see on so many things from me is this........

EARTH KNOWS NO SORROW THAT HEAVEN CANNOT HEAL.

And for that I am thankful for my father in heaven and for the gift of eternal life with my Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ!

Have a blessed day,

Lisa
