Thank you for sharing these words of encouragement. I surely needed to hear this today... Last night our president announced that lockdown will be extended by another two weeks...and the rules here are so strict... <br />Everything is so topsy turvey in our world, and it is so easy to become cast down. But our hope is in Christ and He will hold us fast. <br />Lovely to visit with you today...thinking of you!Kelly-Anne ♥ The Diary of a Country Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15302889010690025224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1489696027613465792.post-46264028502550882102020-04-08T20:13:36.145-07:002020-04-08T20:13:36.145-07:00Thank you for sharing this beautiful, uplifting po...Thank you for sharing this beautiful, uplifting post, Marilyn...so much truth here.

Instead, look to the Word of GOD, dig deep into its depths and find your source of strength." Yes, yes, yes! <br /><br />I just read your post over at Homespun Devotions! Thank you so much for words of encouragement! <br /><br />"It is in the darkest hours of life when all hope seems lost, that maybe, just maybe hope is being reborn in a way we've never discovered or seen before. Don't stop believing... but find yourself at the foot of the cross, in a prayer closet, on your knees. Find and hold onto your faith, because one thing I know for sure. His Word is true. It has been proven true throughout the ages of time. And this crisis we face today is no different than any past pandemic or crisis the world has seen. The parameters may be different, the face and nature of it may have changed, but one thing remains... our Lord reigns... and our hope in Him is secure."<br /><br />You are such a blessing sweet friend!

It did help lift my heavy heart. It is so hard to be patient in the Lord, while many people are dying out there, mothers, grandmothers, fathers, grandfathers and even some young ones. Your beautiful drive and that majestic scenery was so nice to see! I loved the snow covered creek banks and the sounds of the water. I so miss water in my neck of the woods (what? no woods here!)..... and am hoping to go for a little drive this week on the nicest day, to one of our lakes. There are even a few trees there! Have a nice week! Hugs..
