A Source Of Joy: May 2009
http://asourceofjoy.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
Wednesday, May 13, 2009. An ill dread is hanging over me,. Slung on a single strand of cobweb thread. I do not know how I can live today. The usual life of common duties, turn. A calm front to the day's perplexities,. A smile upon its small, persistent cares -. While inwardly a raging fear devours. Courage in mouthfuls; and my chariot wheels. Drag heavily; and gladness flies from me,. Leaving me standing shivering on the edge. Of unknown desolation; and all things. An ill thou dreadest hanging over thee,.

A Source Of Joy: All the way...
http://asourceofjoy.blogspot.com/2009/06/all-way.html
Tuesday, June 30, 2009. The man who is challenged by Fate does not take umbrage at the terms," wrote Dag Hammarskjold. So the man called by Christ. Any terms at all are acceptable if we may be permitted to walk with Him. But is this the path, Lord? Must we take this one in order to reach Home? I have overcome the world" (Jn 16:33). Elisabeth Elliot, A Lamp For My Feet. Elisabeth's practical wisdom always hits home for me, and I found this emailed book excerpt to be exactly what I needed to read today.

http://asourceofjoy.blogspot.com/2009/02/asking-god-why.html
Friday, February 27, 2009. My friend, Mary, has posted a poignantly beautiful poem on her blog.Perhaps it will touch other hearts who have come before God with an honest, confused "WHY? The Question of a Disappointed Woman. Do you think that the infinite God cannot fill and satisfy your heart? Francois de la Mothe Fenmon. February 28, 2009 at 10:09 AM. In answer to your quote, here is another:. There is one heart that Jesus can't fill:. A heart that won't let Him in. But if you will let Him.

A Source Of Joy: February 2009
http://asourceofjoy.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
Saturday, February 28, 2009. The Christian knows no change with regard to God. He may be rich to-day and poor to-morrow;. He may be sickly to-day and well to-morrow;. He may be in happiness to-day, to-morrow he may be distressed-. But there is no change with regard to his relationship to God. If He loved me yesterday, He loves me to-day. My unmoving mansion of rest is my blessed Lord. Let prospects be blighted;. Let hopes be blasted;. Let joy be withered;. Let mildews destroy everything;. Whose thought w...

A Source Of Joy: His way was right.
http://asourceofjoy.blogspot.com/2009/09/his-way-was-right.html
Wednesday, September 23, 2009. His way was right. He writes in characters too grand. For our short sight to understand. We catch but broken strokes,. And try to fathom all the mystery of withered hopes,. Of death, of life. The endless war,. The useless strife- but there. With larger, clearer sight,. We shall see this: His way was right. His way was right. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). His way was right. Young Ladies' Christian Fellowship.

A Source Of Joy: Asking the wrong questions
http://asourceofjoy.blogspot.com/2009/03/asking-wrong-questions.html
Wednesday, March 11, 2009. Asking the wrong questions. I want to be married. [.] Shouldn't that have happened by now? At first I ask, How do I change this? Then, as resignation sets in, I wonder, How do I survive singleness? In particularly painful moments, I want to know more: Why should I be contented? Why should I stay the course? Does God see me? Does He even care? Turns out I've been asking the wrong questions. Read the rest of Elisabeth's excellent, encouraging article. April 15, 2009 at 10:57 AM.

A Source Of Joy: Immanuel: God with us
http://asourceofjoy.blogspot.com/2008/12/immanuel-god-with-us.html
Friday, December 26, 2008. Immanuel: God with us. He that is Wonderful, my Counsellor, the mighty God, the everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace - He is here. This poignantly beautiful song moves me to grateful tears:. A sign shall be given. A virgin will conceive. A human baby bearing. The glory of the nations. A light for all to see. That hope for all who will embrace. Our God is with us. And if God is with us. Who could stand against us. Our God is with us. A glorious light has dawned. He is with us.

A Source Of Joy: And in that cloud thou shalt behold My face
http://asourceofjoy.blogspot.com/2009/02/i-came-across-this-poem-today-and-found.html
Wednesday, February 11, 2009. And in that cloud thou shalt behold My face. I came across this poem today, and found it to be a perfect compliment to my post some weeks back,. About foggy days reminding me of God's presence. May this be a word of encouragement and hope to those of you who find yourself in a cloudy place today. He is there with you. Immanuel. I thought the way upon the mountainside. Would lead to certain clearness; but my Guide. Whose thought was otherwise. And fearing, cried aloud,. The p...
