cocoon

A few things in my life lately make me want to
"cocoon myself away from the world outside".
{thank you lemon lane cottage for this phrase}

When people you love are going through a crisis
and you don't know how to help . . .
remember you can always pray.

It is so hard to know that as badly
as you feel, they feel much worse.



Praying for strength and wisdom to cocoon listen, reassure, advise, help . . .

    I know exactly how you feel. We've watched family members go through dark times in recent weeks and it makes you feel helpless. But prayer is working. Things are improving and I know they can do the same in your situation. I will keep you in my prayers.

    I have just recently been through this same thing. I'm still going through it, actually. I lift you for the strength to keep on praying. Remember the wonderful story of Moses, Joshua and the Amalekites. It was the prayers of Moses that allowed Joshua to fight it to victory. May God bless you.

    a manifesto for times like these! "Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer." - Romans 12:12

    How are things today? hoping things are looking better. Seems like there is always something. But those clouds roll by and the sun comes back, lets hope that is soon.
