Being Strong

Sometimes the Lord leads in ways I can't understand. Sometimes growth is not only challenging, but it's achingly painful.

Such is the road I walk right now. Deep sorrow and yet deep hope that underlies the sorrow. I can't explain it.

In fact, I don't even really have words. You know that's rare for me. (Take advantage while you can!)

The verse that was in Streams from the Desert yesterday was from Job 13:15 - "Though He slay me, yet will I hope in Him."

I have great hope in my God and the words I know I've heard from His heart to mine. And though this journey may not be what I would have planned, it's not one I would miss. He is leading me to the land He has promised me. I will walk with Him.
