He has known your walking through this great wilderness (Deuteronomy 2:7; HNV).
1. There’s nothing else
We need to do in death:
Our work is done.
2. There’s nowhere else
We need to go:
Our race on earth is run.
3. There’s no one else
We need to see but God,
Who takes our hand,
4. And gently draws us
Back into his soul:
Our Promised Land.

This fills me with tears of joy! 🙏💖xxx
Well, I’m delighted that God always brings good out of bad! XXXXXXX
p.s. I feel so blessed with my prayer and reading today – my Bible, a Charles Surgeon book and now a surprise double heling from you. Thanks Ruth!
Better get a move on … asthma clinic today. How can I miss a 3 o’clock appointment – quite easy for me. 😂 xxx
So glad you’re feeling blessed, and I hope this afternoon’s appointment will go well, and prove helpful XXXX
It was just a routine check, Ruth, and all’s good. How are you? I hope the ‘flu isn’t lingering. xxx
Really glad you have nothing Untoward to report. Original illness has progressed to a chest infection for us both, so we haven’t left the house for days. Loads of time for writing and sleeping, though, which are both a great blessing XX.
Sorry to hear that, Ruth. I hope your medics are looking after you, and hubby too. Lots of sleep is the best thing. xxx
Don’t worry – it’s like living in a bunker! Take care XXXXX
Lol Ruth! At least you don’t have the sirens going off. It’s the right time to hibernate anyway. 😁 xxx
Indeed it is xxxxxx
Spurgeon .. ooops!
