"If I discover within myself a desire which no
experience in the world can satisfy, the most probable explanation is that I
was made for another world."
~ C. S. Lewis
Blessed be the God and Father of our LORD Jesus Christ,
who according to His abundant mercy has begotten us again to a living hope
through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,
to an inheritance incorruptible and undefiled and that does not fade away,
reserved in heaven for you who are kept by the power of God
through faith for salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.
In this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while,
if need be, you have been grieved by various trials,
that the genuineness of your faith,
being much more precious than gold that perishes,
though it is tested by fire, may be found to praise, honour and glory
at the revelation of Jesus Christ, whom having not seen you love.
Though now you do not see Him, yet believing,
you rejoice with joy inexpressible and full of glory,
receiving the end of your faith - the salvation of your souls.
1 Peter 1:3-9

Dear Andrea Dawn,
ReplyDeleteWe were SO made for another world, a world where there will be no need for a knee replacement, BUT we are here now and He has you where you need to be to get your needs answered. I think you will be amazed at all you experience through this. Can you believe that the first day in Equador Darryl got pigs! He knows us. He loves us. He cares for us! Hallelujah!
Speaking of hallelujah, if you have internet access check this out

Praying for your healing,

What a wonderful reminder we are made for another world -- one where we long to go but know it may be more profitable for us to be here in this one for now. Thankfully, we are in this world but not of it!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad to have found your blog!
