Dear Bloggers,
I had the opportunity tonight to share a little bit of scripture that I found with a struggling friend from my past. It seems that she is hurting for one of her children that is having some tough times right now. This is my 1st time actually being able to pull something from HIS word in hopes of helping someone else. I have always been a good listener and I feel that I am a very true friend to people, but it feels WONDERFUL to share HIS word and HIS wisdom with someone in need.
By the way, this is the scripture that I told her to read....Jeremiah 31:15-17
15This is what the Lord says:
"A voice is heard in Ramah,
mourning and great weeping,
Rachel weeping for her children
and refusing to be comforted,
because her children are no more"
16This is what the Lord says:
"Restrain your voice from weeping
and your eyes from tears,
for your work will be rewarded,"
declares the Lord.
"They will return from the land of the enemy,
17So there is hope for your future
declares the Lord,
"Your children will return to their own land."
I sure hope my friend realizes that praying for our children is the best thing that we can do for them!
Amen
