Awaiting Angels - Day 5
You have been distressed by various trials ~ 1 Peter 1:6-7
In the bleak, complex landscape of trial, there is comfort in simplicity. Yes, while insurmountable crags assaulted His senses and uncrossable canyons blocked Christ’s path, the pure rhythms of body and thought kept Him from despair. Jesus knew the simple rhythms of His body and mind, and in Him, the two found union as He prayed.
Sometimes, like plain food, simple prayers are best, while quietness of mind and body restores our strength beyond measure. On a black night, a single star will fill the sky with subtle light. When someone is lost in a barren wilderness, a single horizon point provides a hopeful target to set as a goal.
Simple truths and simple desires are the most satisfying. Comfort comes when what we want is what we have.
Blessing and peace to you!
