Thoughts while Traveling

I am not into debate, never have been. Sarah got that particular gene straight from Dad. Debate away, my dear brother's and sister's. I have just heard so much debate lately it makes me weary. That's where I am. I am gonna just move on, if you all don't mind.

I am reading a book right now which I have not decided I like ot not, but the more I read the more I keep reading, so I guess that's a good sign. "Waking the Dead" by John Eldridge.
Last night's sitting was highlighted by this:

"Therefore, we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal"(2 Cor. 4:16-18)

The first line grabs me by the throat. "Therefore we do not lose heart." Somebody knows how to not lose heart? I'm all ears. For we are losing heart. All of us. Daily. It is the single most unifying quality shared by the human race on the planet at this time. We are losing- or have already lost---heart. The glorious, resilient image of God in us is fading away. And this man claims to know his way out. Now, to appreciate the weight of his words, you need some idea of what his life has been like. He is neither wealthy nor famous; his life has not been sheltered, as the saying goes. But he has seen visions, had encounters, you might say, with something beyond the walls of this world. Ever since then, things have gotten difficult...

I will keep you posted on what comes next. This excerpt meets me right where I am. My prayer is that the Holy Spirit will take me on to the next tier. Have a good day, everybody. Let's love each other.
