In this broken life, I often long for my home in heaven. Little tastes of heaven are all around, though flawed and masked by sin and decay. This song reminds me that though trials and disappointments may seem to last forever, my faith in Jesus will soon "take me into the Beautiful."
On the last day of the feast, the great day, Jesus stood up and cried out, “If anyone thirsts, let him come to me and drink. Whoever believes in me, as the Scripture has said, ‘Out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.’”
John 7:37-38

I want to tell you that your writing, your self and your sharing of that self - matters.
Even though I seldom have the strength to comment, I am reading.
I appreciate you.
Longing for Heaven, no holds barred, and someday I will hug you there,

Hey. God has shared so much of who he is with you being blogging. Every one of us God had prepared to mighty things to demonstrate His Love and compassion to a world suffering in darkness. I know you suffer in body more than you share on your blog. But you are a voice that God communicates thru and a voice that God loves so much. You echo the words of The Son of Man. When I am weak and no one understands, I seek out a few blogs to help me bear the burdens that seem to have robbed me of what I thought success was
We have lost much, but we rejoice knowing the comfort we have in Christ. One day this injustice in our bodies will be undone. Almost in every blog you encourage me to hold on went it hurts when I am depressed you bring courage when I need to let the tears flow... In all these times some where God has guided your heart to be his words of comfort. Some how he has blessed you with his heart. I know that blessing to others had cost you dearly ... One day we'll rejoice when Jesus wipes all our sorrows. Thank you for following Jesus
May God bless you in his abundant grace and compassion to hold you is his arms every day in every moment. I am blessed with courage from your testimonies of just what is the color of God's qavah
It is a true answer to prayer that my struggles are in turn being used to help others who are suffering. Thank you for reading and offering such encouragement to me today!
Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have received from God. 2 Corinthians 1:3-4
