I am Dawn Warren's sister. I have b...Stephanie,<br />I am Dawn Warren's sister. I have been (and will continue to be) praying for you and your family. This post made me think of Psalm 73:21-28. <br /><br />21 When my heart was grieved and my spirit embittered,<br />22 I was senseless and ignorant; I was a brute beast before you.<br />23 Yet I am always with you; you hold me by my right hand.<br />24 You guide me with your counsel, and afterward you will take me into glory.<br />25 Whom have I in heaven but you? And the earth has nothing I desire besides you.<br />26 My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.<br />27 Those who are far from you will perish; you destroy all who are unfaithful to you. <br />28 But as for me, it is good to be near God. I have made the Sovereign Lord my refuge; I will tell of all your deeds.<br /><br />I too, love the symbolism in Narnia. I'm glad you included Mr. Beaver's quote. It was so right- God doesn't promise safe, but HE IS GOOD! To steal a line from these verses and my friend Kara, "The nearness to God is my only good." Reepicheep understood this- his hearts desire was to be near God. Such Beauty... <br /><br />On a day when you are up to it, please check out my friend Kara's blog @ Mundane Faithfulness. She is also the author of the book "The Hardest Peace." She chooses to find the grace in each day, in each impossible hard- much like you. It may be an encouragement to you. <br /><br />Thanks for making me think on these verses today. I'm forwarding your post to Kara- I know it will encourage her, too. Thank you.<br />Prayers-<br />TrishaTrishanoreply@blogger.com
