When things get dark; when there is anguish, and the people I love most are gutted -
Can I still stand with unflinching belief that Christ rules over the affairs of men?
Will I still trust Him when it looks as though its all going pear shaped?
What I am finding is that the turmoil seems to take place at a different "level" than where He relates to me.That He is somehow resident deeper than that.
Like pounding waves in the middle of the ocean do not disturb the sea bed.
And also higher than that.
Like storm clouds raging around a mountain -
They are real, but the mountain stands, unchanged by it all.

This is when we all falter i think Allie. This is when our faith has to be so real that we just HAVE to believe.
I hope that all is ok with your family. Mel has been quiet on FB i hope that she is not involved somehow. Thinking and prayer for you and your family at this time. xx
Yes Shayne - you are so right.
Thank you for your prayers; we do need them right now.
Allie. YOU are also great and unendingly kind.
You must remember this.
Oh Allie...I have been down that road. I will pray for you and your family...the Lord is faithful and He always remains in control.
Ness my friend! - my kindness is so not unending.
Ask any of my family!

They live in dark she lives in light
Her days are days their days are night.
