when tragedy strikes
why suffering?
the suffering of fools
temptations, tests, and trials
why does God test man, part one
testing and the education of life
what my cat taught me about testing, and trusting
why does God test man, part two
we are the clay
judging suffering
when we suffer: a warning
help when we hurt
flip the switch
My heart cries to the Lord: (Psalm 131)
My heart is not proud, O Lord
My eyes are not haughty
I do not concern myself with great matters
Or things too wonderful for me
But I have stilled and quieted my soul
like a weaned child with its mother
Like a weaned child is my soul within me
O my soul
Put your hope in the Lord
Both now and forevermore.
The Lord’s heart cries to me: (Isaiah 57:15)
For thus says the One
Who is high and lifted up
Who inhabits eternity
Whose name is Holy
I dwell in the high place
I dwell in the holy place
And also with him whose heart is contrite
And also with him whose spirit is lowly
My presence revives
The spirit of the lowly
My presence revives
The heart of the contrite.
hearts wounded by suffering
what my thimble taught me
pride: the hidden problem with hardness
portrait of a yielded heart
the poetry of a yielded heart
comfort when we suffer
taking comfort: psalm 42
the poetry of taking comfort
comfort, comfort, o my people
comfort as a mother comforts
a rabbit trail
the joy of intimacy
the poetry of intimacy
God’s comforting presence
why don’t I feel God?
christians and suffering
back from the abyss
