"You will show me the path of life; in Your presence is fullness of joy, at Your right hand there are pleasures forevermore."
Psalm 16:11
"God comes to our lonely, anxious hearts and whispers our name. God says "I see both the fear you have of closeness and the deep longing you have to belong. I have come to comfort you and to respond to your need. I have been seeking a relationship with you. You belong. You belong to me. You are my child."

YOUR TURN


My brother is due to arrive today for a week to take over "the responsibility" of watching and caring for my mum.

I cannot tell you how much I look forward to his arrival.

I am tired. All over. Inside and out.

That will give you a little breathing space, and I know you need it, just as I'm needing a bit of breathing room too with my duties..

Take care!

JBR,
Maybe now you'll be able to get some much needed rest (I hope). Sending you a big hug because I also know how difficult it is having your brother nearby. In this case, you need a break though. God bless you, my friend!
