A soaring thought for us to ponder today.
When the soul has laid down its faults and failures at the feet of God and seeks forgiveness at the Cross and is redeemed by the blood of the Lamb, then, that soul (though the body is anchored for mortal life to the earth) feels as though it now has wings.
Eugenie De Guerin
Such is the FREEDOM and POWER of GRACE
The prophet Isaiah wrote. Isa. 41: 31
Those who wait on the Lord,
Shall renew their strength.
They shall mount up with wings like eagles.
They shall run and not be weary,
They shall walk and not faint.
Thank You, Lord.
What a truly awesome God is ours.
Blessing! Peace! and Love to you and yours.
a-men.

About Faye
I m a wife, mother and grandmother. I have always enjoyed writing even from an early age. My book Beyond the Ashes has been written as a labour of love. All the characters are real to me and their story needed to be told. As a Christian my desire is to write General Fiction stories about real people but Hope and a desire for 'better' will always be part of the journey. I have had several short stories published over the years and moderate success in writing competitions.
I realized as I was thinking today (30/01/15) that perhaps I should add here that I have had life experiences of many valley times but also many mountain top experiences. I can understand and be beside anyone who finds their life in tatters because I have 'been' there. Of course as I have got older as well there have been the added sorrows of losing not only older family members but also one by one finding the dearest of friends and the ones of greatest support and care also dying. On the site of rich mountains has been my certainty of the value of marriage and how grateful I am that after loss and sadness I made a happy and long-lasting marriage commitment. The one who was my best friend back then is still my best friend 45 years later. Beyond the Ashes touches upon the POWER of LOVE when folk can forget about their own personal 'feelings' and reach out in LOVE to a desperate and broken person.
Love the quote and caption under the picture. Nice word picture.
