Ormond Beach Sunset ~ Saturday, October 14, 2017 

I can and will trust God with this day and all my tomorrows.

"In the garden of the Lord, our work is sound. 
He is weaving every thorn into a crown. 
In the garden of the Lord, in the garden of the Lord,
in the garden of the Lord, our work is sound." 
{Porter's Gate Worship Project}

"In the oven of affliction, grace will prepare the bread of delight. 
Someday you will thank God for all your sadness." - Charles H. Spurgeon

Could there be anything more encouraging than knowing that every pain and every loss
and every moment we've been sad, God is building a great revealing of His glory in it?
In "working all things" for us and for the glory of Who He is, He is using this, all of this.
And we will weep with joy at the revealing of it. "Someday you will thank God for all your sadness." 

Wow. Thank you, Jesus.
