My Door to Peace
by Lavine K. Bailey
Whenever I am troubled, and
Lost in deep despair,
I bundle all my troubles up,
And go to God in prayer.
I tell him I am heartsick
And lost and empty, too,
That my mind is deeply burdened,
And I don't know what to do.
But I know he stilled the tempest,
And calmed the angry sea;
I humbly ask if in his love,
He'll do the same for me.
And then I just keep quiet, and
Think only thoughts of peace:
And if I abide in stillness,
My restless murmurings cease.

I had also noticed that poem in the Sister Triangle, and thought it was so good! What a wonderful lady, and a great reminder of her!
We're still praying for all of you -- love the pictures -- and I think you are doing so wonderfully well, all of you! God's blessings, wisdom, love and laughter be with you all!

That poem is a treasure! It's so encouraging to see how God speaks. I'm glad that you were given that.
We pray for you and miss you every day.
Love,
Andrea
