Stranded at World’s End
“How wonderful to find Him always there, when we have unexpected need of Him! That living touch with Him is so precious; it makes Him so real; it obliterates the line between the earthly and heavenly; it is so humbling to find Him waiting there.”
“There are many apparently needless trials in life, but the Lord stands with us through all of them. ‘May you lose nothing in the furnace but your dross,’ said Samuel Rutherford. The Lord will preserve everything else for us.”
“Stranded at world’s end? Maybe. But if we lean back we will find ourselves on the bosom of Christ—sweet, familiar place.
Sometimes on the Rock I tremble,
Faint of heart and weak of knee;
But the steadfast Rock of Ages
Never trembles under me!”

Happy Independence Day! Enjoy your freedom because of what Christ has done for us.
Hope you are healing well. Many blessings, Jackie
Thank you for your kind words. I am getting a little better every day.
Kim, are you still on Twitter? Can’t find your account. @Godsfiningfire Thanks.
I closed my twitter account. Everything on twitter seemed to be so negative, so I decided to step back. I am on Facebook and Instagram.
Thanks, Kim. I don’t blame you at all. I’m on the fence.
