Today's Bible verse:
"When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee. For I am the LORD thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Saviour (Isaiah 43:2,3 KJV)."
Daily Light on the Daily Path Life is precious and when it is lost, we mourn. Our love, our sympathy and our prayers go out to the victims of the southern California fires. We grieve with the survivors and families of all tragedies - natural disaster, accidents, health issues, unspeakable crimes - and whatever crisis you may be facing this day.

"Tragedy, Faith and Unanswerable Questions"
by Peggie C. Bohanon, Writer and Webmaster of Peggie's Place!
Tragedy happens....faith "IS".....and how in the world, as we watch bad things happen, do we reconcile the two seemingly contradictory facts? Turn to today's Bible verses above and know, without a doubt, that Someone else watches, knows - and mourns with us. God Himself.
God sent Jesus, His Son, to our messed-up world on a mission - He was anointed to "preach good news to the poor...bind up the brokenhearted....comfort all who mourn, and provide...a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning...." (See Bible Gateway/Isaiah 61:3 - NIV.)
Why? Because a Sovereign Lord already knew what was ahead for mankind - sin, suffering, loss, despair, destruction, and yes, tornados and terrible accidents. In His love, He sent Jesus to bring comfort, healing and hope - our faith is founded in the ever-trustworthiness of our God, even when we do not understand.
Unanswerable questions? You better believe it. It's LIFE - but we live it by FAITH in the SON OF GOD who "loved us and gave Himself for us." He grieves WITH us today in our grief and unbearable sorrows....may He comfort us all.

Walk in Worship - !
Today's hymn: Hymn Story - "All the Way My Savior Leads Me" Today's prayer: "Lord, there are questions in life for which we have no answers. We cry to You from our grief-stricken hearts...may Your comfort and love surround those who personally suffer and grieve this day. May their faith in You rise above the tragedies to know You are with them and will carry them through. Thank You for the hope of eternal life - we place our heavy hearts and our too-many-questions in Your Sovereign hands, in Jesus' Name, Amen."
