Do you not know?
Have you not heard?
The Lord is the everlasting
God, the Creator
He will not grow tired or weary,
and his understanding no one can fathom.
29 He gives strength to the weary
and increases the power of the weak.
30 Even youths grow tired and weary,
and young men stumble and fall;
31 but those who hope in the Lord
will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles;
they will run and not grow weary,
they will walk and not be faint.​

My condolences for your loss and the trouble you are presently going through. In the valleys is where we need to keep our eyes on Jesus. I know it rough at first, but once it’s learned valleys and mountains become all the same.

“in all things I have learned to be content, I know how to be poor and I know how to abound.”

But it’s the learning of this truth that is painful. For we all die daily, and dying to self is painful. But the fruit of righteousness grows on this tree. Praying that your eyes will be fixed on Christ as you go though these trying time. Knowning that this to will pass.

Much love and prayers in Christ, Not me

I am sorry for You. It is not easy when a beloved grandmother goes home with the Lord. Well now I suppose She was a christian. At least You seem to miss her very much, I also missed my grandmother much when She passed away. I hope to see her again. I made a floral funeral decoration as a practice but thought it is for someone that need some joy in their life. And although we give flowers to the persons that have gone on it is we that enjoy their beautiful colours too for a while. I pray that You also find a job that You enjoy or studies that lead to a job. Cheers.

:heart: Praying for you Mario, and all your family, that God mooooves as only He can. He raises beauty from ashes. May you see His very hand in all that un-folds, as He does this very thing. May you sense His comfort, and may He be the Lifter of your head. Father may it be so, in Jesus name, amen. (((hug)))

Listen and meditate on the lyrics to this song and how they relate to you, as a child of the Most High God, and our God, Who is ABLE to do ALL that is sung in the lyrics. He really parts "seas" and He calms the storms, and He stills the tsunami's coming against us.

Prayer sent for peace. Remember as stated above that to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. I hurt for you my Brother, but remember, some glad morning when this life is over, we can all rejoice together as death takes it's final bow before the throne.

Father, may this one see so clearly by his spirit, the brightness of the glory You are (Hebrews 1:3), that at least for a moment all the grief he is focusing on will disappear from sight like the stars when the Sun is risen. May he spiritually "walk on water" so to speak, with his eyes focused spiritually on the face of Jesus, rather than those troubling waves and wind. May he experience the power of focusing on You instead of the things that are troubling him. May he, like Moses in Hebrews 11:27, may he endure these griefs as seeing You who are invisible.

Keep feeding on God's Word, trustingly. The four chapters of Philippians are good in focusing on the Lord Jesus and joy amidst suffering.

This is a wonderful passage. It's very kind of you to share it.
