“‘Though the mountains be shaken and the hills be removed, yet My unfailing love for you will not be shaken nor My covenant of peace be removed,’ says the Lord, who has compassion on you.” Isaiah 54:10
Amazing Life, Amazing Grace
Thank you for your prayers on my behalf. A number of you have been asking how I’m doing physically. I’m still battling a persistent infection. It lingers in spite of many rounds of treatment. I’d appreciate your prayers for it to go away. God can certainly do what medicine hasn’t been able to accomplish!
I’d also appreciate your prayers for my family. Several are battling Covid at the moment. I’m trusting for full recovery, and no lingering aftereffects.
I shared a quote in the last update: “Grief is our receipt of having loved well.” Afterwards, someone sent me the full quote by Glennon Doyle Melton. It’s even more beautiful. I wanted to pass it on.
“Grief is love’s souvenir. It’s our proof that we once loved. Grief is the receipt we wave in the air that says to the world: ‘Look! Love was once mine. I loved well. Here is my proof that I paid the price.’ ”
I’m glad to have loved well. My 54 years with Floyd are a treasure that I will always hold close to my heart. I was doing a short video this week for the Celebration of Life memorial coming up on July 24 in Kansas City. Sharing about Floyd made me so grateful for the life we had together. God has been so good to us!
I’ve been listening to a rendition of “Amazing Grace” being sung in 50 countries all over the world. I share the link below. This is what heaven will be like! All of us worshipping the Lord together. Floyd is experiencing this now. He’s with his parents, with my parents, and with many friends who have gone before us. What a great day of rejoicing it will be when all tribes and tongues can stand together and worship the Lord. We have so much to thank Him for.
His amazing grace is firm and secure—even though everything around us is being shaken. God is our sure stronghold! He’s our Rock!
Father, we look forward with trust and hope to eternity with You. Amen.
