A Gift of Forgiveness

It was this same time of year that my first RA flare happened 4 years ago. Even as last week's flare is subsiding, and the fire is being watered by the graceful help of my Lord, (and thank you for any who have lifted me in prayer this past week!) my mind has set to … Continue reading A Gift of Forgiveness →

My heart is flowing with thanksgiving for all of the prayers offered for me as I was shut in with the after-effects of last week’s infusion. I am so grateful for the time that He gave to call me deeper into His heart. While the physical effects were heavy, the soul effects were heavier, as truly He did infuse my heart with Himself. . . Have you been in a place where He uncovered a deeper truth than just the surface moments easily seen?. . . Join me at the blog this week for thoughts on feeling shunned and cut-off. . . "There is surely a future hope for you, and your hope will not be cut off." Proverbs 23:18. . . #outsidethecamp #community #Jesusrestores #oldwounds #cleansed

“Can I ask you just what an infusion is?” I have had several friends ask me that question lately. As I have tried to answer that question, my heart suddenly realized it was another of those questions that is actually being asked of me by the Lord. . . What does it mean to be infused?. . . Another friend prayed for me, "Infuse Bettie with the light of your love," precisely at the moment the hospital was calling to schedule the next infusion. . . His mysteries surround us every day, every moment. . . "My Soul Was Tipped And Spilled" When I was a child I used to wonder . . . If I could be turned inside out What would my soul look like?. . . For all the years I wore the mask, Was it to keep my soul from tipping out?. . . Because underneath the aching of a hurting heart Lay a trusting child in love with God. . . So when my soul was tipped and spilled, What did God see bubbling thru?. . . A gift of LOVE created by HIM. . . Surrender to spill Songs for singing A Savior’s Call . . . –bg . .

I woke early to a brief, glimmering sunrise and a verse-of-the-day that spoke deeply to my heart. . . Jesus will make a way. #hebeganthegoodwork #hefinisheswhathestarts #rheumatoidarthritis #osteoporosis #infusions #godsgotthis

He bore it all for me This pain that stabs my head It was His love that bore the crown the crown of thorns that pierced his brow. . . He bore it all for me This pain that marks my hand It was His love that carried the cross the nails that pierced His wrist. . . He bore it all for me This pain that grips my toes It was His love that took the spike when hammer plunged his feet. . . Oh how I weep and how I moan When pain clouds over my seeing It was His love that sent Him here where death defined His living. . . Where can I go, Where can I stay My only source of being Has opened Heaven wide Where LOVING is His Living. --bg We are covered by so much love from the One who opened Heaven for us. Join me at the blog for more thoughts this week. #lovecoversus #Jesusboreitall #chronicpain #Jesuscarriesus #Unsplashphotojeremybishop

"A Wisdom Higher” what can I say when questions cover the pain and answers elude me. . . who carries me then over roads marred by shame with questions not answered. . . a wisdom higher answers dark with shining as my questions unfurl. . . His mercy answers speaks a question to my heart will you come with me –bg #Poetry from a quiet place, on the blog this week, in response to the prompts of #answer&question given by Ronovan Hester at #Ronovanwrites. Mercy and compassion are new with Jesus every day. #Lamentations3:22-23 #Haikupoetrychallenge #mercy

While the cold ground sleeps outside, I have been trying to keep this maidenhair fern alive. It is certainly beautiful, but in the dry forced-air heat of my home, it is struggling along. I am enjoying it while it lasts!
