Thirty-something-year-old.
Fresh out of the crevice of a cave into a chair over a country.
Right smack dab into a place of unity---that's what David wrote a few days ago.
Safe and surrounded under the Grace of God.
"To You, O Lord, I lift up my soul.
O my God, in You I trust." Ps 25:1-2
O God, may this be the mantra of our pensive days.
And here's this beautiful life of David longing to trust You in sorrow & sickness.
He has found You. Found faith. In the midst of grief, such grace.
Seems like people today don't want to hear the grief part just the party.
That's not life. We are all called to suffering of all sorts.

"None who wait for You shall be put to shame." None. Ps 25:3.
“O Lord, make me know my end
and what is the measure of my days;
let me know how fleeting I am!"
Psalm 39:
and what is the measure of my days;
let me know how fleeting I am!"
Psalm 39:
COME BOLDLY: Timeless Prayers
"Make me to know your ways, O Lord;
teach me your paths.
Lead me in your truth and teach me,
for you are the God of my salvation;
for you I wait all the day long."
teach me your paths.
Lead me in your truth and teach me,
for you are the God of my salvation;
for you I wait all the day long."
Psalm 25:5
And where that just is not true, make it so.
"Turn to me and be gracious to me,
for I am lonely and afflicted.
The troubles of my heart are enlarged;
bring me out of my distresses. Ps 25:16-17
PHOTO: July 4, 2013 - it's the moment I learned from a phone call that I had cancer, again. I had already walked this Santa Rosa Island beach in sadness. This day I walked in sickness. And This God walked with me. Can't figure it all out. I just know it's Him. Even when I freeze and doubt and melt. This God won't ever give up on me. If I can just find Him this moment.
