Stay and Fight


Stay until I say "go",
fight until I say "rest".

That's what I heard in my heart this morning as I was praying for a friend.

And here's how we're able to do that...



The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases;
his mercies never come to an end;
they are new every morning;
great is your faithfulness.
Lam 3:22-23

  3. Your blog is so beautiful, so uplifting and warm. Great Is Thy Faithfulness is one of my favorite songs. My life has been hard and having just lost my husband two months ago it got even harder, but no matter how heavy the sadness or the depth of the pain I always know where to go for comfort.
    Have an awesome day.
