Depth Perception

A little over a year ago, I wrote a post about a time of personal struggle. I didn't have 'answers' to why the struggling happened, & had no evidence of the 'good' that God would bring from it. But slowly, and with certainty, I'm gaining perspective on that difficult 'season' in my life. I have begun to catch glimpses of the fresh, clean growth that results from a severe pruning performed with precise and sure timing. . .

There's growth still to be gained, & depths yet to be plumbed. But there comes a time we simply must release our efforts, & let time and distance carry new perceptions into view. I realize not all the answers are at my disposal, and may never be. And that's okay, I think, somehow.

Laura Story's "Blessings," speaks with extravagant tenderness, as to why . . .





The singer/song writer's own words:





~New depth. Fresh perceptions~

Thanks be to God.

One of the drawbacks, when echoing blog-posts to FaceBook is that all the comments stay on Facebook.

There oughta be a bit of feedback from FB to Blogger. There're many still whom don't do both.

Oops, add Twitter to FaceBook. Applies to both.

Crucis!! Great to see you here~ have enjoyed our visits on FB, too!

Somehow, I think, there's a dark chasm of wiring that connects all that stuff together...and we just don't know it. Call me a conspiracy theorist!
