My heart is torn as I see the world around me unfolding into the beautiful display of celebration. For so many this is a hard season to endure. We all know them….maybe we are them… The one who’s only been sober for a week and wondering how on earth to face a holiday without alcohol. The one who can count the days since their loved one passed. The one who’s lost count of the days since their loved one walked out. So many are hurting. So many are hungry….for so many things.
I have to believe He’s bigger than this, than me, than the burdens we carry. I believe there are moments of mending. If only we are given the grace to see them. Lord gives us eyes to see Your hand during this season. Give us courage and insight to BE Your hands. Help us to love beyond ourselves. Help us to be peace on earth. Thank You….

Great thoughts for the season. How sad it is that during this season when we celebrate love and giving, people are prone to stress, anger and suicide. Our God is bigger than all this even though sometimes it seems we are losing the battle God Bless!

Beautiful, Caroline – your words and you. Brings to mind one of the verses I’ve clung to year after year “He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.” xoxo
