Life Is Still Beautiful by Cara Marie Grant

For the beauty of the earth

He suffered pain and sorrow

Darkness in ways unimaginable

So we could know his goodness

For each soul rescued into new birth

He endured shame and terror

Betrayal and humiliation

Because joy was to come

For simple sheep (whose words are far too small)

To describe what it meant

Why Despair had its way

Yes, Beauty was about to appear

For hope and peace He did it all

So we could witness love

And know HIM.

For the beauty of the earth.

Always Held

Every tear, every pain
Every confusion, every fear
Every prayer, every silent cry

You’re always held in the Father’s hands

He’s heard every whisper
He’s seen every struggle
He knows every weakness

You’re always held in the Father’s hands

What you’ve been through
What you’re going through
What will come

You’re allways held in the Father’s hands

You are never forgotten
You are never abandoned
You are never forsaken

You’re always held in the Father’s hands

❤️Some say it's 12 inches, others say it's 18... whatever is actually true... it's the longest journey I've ever been on. It's so much easier to know something intellectually than it is to know something in our hearts. To really integrate that thing into our living and act it out with our whole being? That process is hard and often long, but always so worthwhile. Through fear and doubt, those flowers of peace and grace and love begin to grow as they are watered by our tears. And eventually yes, they even flourish.
