A Heart of JOY!

"May we learn that 

in all the difficult places

 Gods takes us, 

He is giving us opportunities to

 exercise our faith 

in Him that will 

bring about blessed results 

and greatly glorify His name."

-Life of Praise,Streams in the Desert, 1/18

"Only the soul that knows the mighty grief

Can know the mighty rapture.


Sorrows come to stretch out spaces 

in the heart for joy."

A Life of Grieving-Understood by the Man of Sorrows

-yawning Fox, Yellowstone FB

"There is no grief 


like the grief that does not speak."


-Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Isaiah 53:3-6


..."He was despised and forsaken of men,
A man of sorrows and acquainted with grief;
And like one from whom men hide their face
He was despised, and we did not esteem Him.


Surely our griefs He Himself bore,
And our sorrows He carried;
Yet we ourselves esteemed Him stricken,
Smitten of God, and afflicted.


But He was pierced through for our transgressions,
He was crushed for our iniquities;
The chastening for our well-being fell upon Him,
And by His scourging we are healed.


All of us like sheep have gone astray,
Each of us has turned to his own way;
But the Lord has caused the iniquity of us all
To fall on Him."...
