Carry Our Sorrows

This summer I've been flipping through National Geographic and some other publications that regularly highlight suffering and poverty around the world. And all around me people are hurting from abuse, depression, loss of a loved one, family problems, estrangement, etc.Thinking about all this sorrow gets me overwhelmed with grief. Can we be healed?


Surely he took up our infirmities
and carried our sorrows.


Amen.

    Hey Rach,
    what a beautiful reminder to me this morning. So true about everything you said. It seems soo very hopeless when you look around and see the despair. It is really good that you are sensitive to it. Sometimes I turn my eyes away because to look at it makes me feel uncomfortable. I hope to be more sensitve to it. Love you girl! Your babies are so precious :)

    love,
    Mel
