untitled

because no title can fit.....words escape my mind and float off into the atmosphere and i don't know what to say.

there was a tragedy in the city where i live.  i cannot understand it.  three of God's children (and a fourth who i do not know the testimony of) have left this world behind on very sudden terms and though i personally did not know them i cannot right now come to grips..... ...my finite comprehensions falters.

many verses and words float through my mind but speaking them aloud seems insufficient.  insufficient because i am insufficient, my mind is insufficient but i know my God is not.  the holy spirit whispers to me, that still small voice tells me that God is here; God was there.  the only thing i can do is take my inability, my incomprehension and give it to my Lord and only trust Him.  one day, when i see my Savior face to face my heart will understand, on that blessed day my heart will understand.  now i'll hide myself in Him and praise the Lord that these three souls gone from this earth, stand in glory with our Lord Jesus Christ; and i will pray for those left here in this world.

O safe to the Rock that is higher than I,My soul in its conflicts and sorrows would fly;So sinful, so weary, Thine, Thine, would I be;

Thou blest “Rock of Ages,” I’m hiding in Thee.

Refrain

Hiding in Thee, hiding in Thee,Thou blest “Rock of Ages,”

I’m hiding in Thee.

In the calm of the noontide, in sorrow’s lone hour,In times when temptation casts o’er me its power;In the tempests of life, on its wide, heaving sea,

Thou blest “Rock of Ages,” I’m hiding in Thee.

Refrain

How oft in the conflict, when pressed by the foe,I have fled to my refuge and breathed out my woe;How often, when trials like sea billows roll,

Have I hidden in Thee, O Thou Rock of my soul.

Refrain

in my desperate search for words i am thankful for the scripture that assures me the Lord know my heart.

Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.  Romans 8:26

please pray for the griffiths.
