Indeed, in the path of Your judgments, O Lord,
We have waited expectantly for You;
Your name,
even Your memory,
is the desire
and deep longing
of our souls.
Isaiah 26:8 AMP
Eternity is in our hearts, having glimpses of who God is are part of who we are...
We are made for relationship with the Eternal, and it's found in the restless nature of our souls.
Our world, people, are searching for Him
When things don't feel "right" it's because they aren't.
Yet.
One day all will be made new, all that's been broken will be unbroken, we, and our world will be redeemed.
The price has already been paid, and that restoration has begun (& we are part of it!)
And one day, those deepest longings of our souls will be fully met.
And we will know.

...four men arrived carrying a paralyzed man on a mat. They couldn't bring him to Jesus because of the crowd, so they dug a hole through the roof above his head. Then they lowered the man on his mat, right down in front of Jesus... Mark 2:3-4 NLT Great account of inventiveness and determination to get their friend to see Jesus. Love this. Do you wonder about the back story? Are these the same 4 people who bring this man food? Take him to the toilet every day. Clean him up. Does he live with one of them? Are they family? Are there whole families or groups of people in the background who have supported and cared for this man? A group of children who grew up seeing their parents love in action? Probably. Healing Help Hope These things are found in community. These 4 guys are the heroes here. The upfront people. One day it will be interesting to see who the background heroes are. #loveinaction #community #inthistogether #walkingeachotherhome #gospelofmark
