in every quiet headland
in every evening still
there
doth mercy
spill
As i reflect on this image i am struck by the vastness of our Creator's mercy. How, i ask myself, can such a peaceful scene be found, especially when the news of the day is of hoarded baby fetuses, mass shootings, and opioid overdoses. The beauty before me could never be possible without a God of long-suffering patience.

This is by far the best thing in my inbox today. Thanks for helping me to pause and sit in His great mercy for a moment. Your blog is a special place...grateful to be a part of your tribe...or maybe I should say herd. ;)
