It is a bottomless well that can't satisfy. Thank you for your honesty; I know many of us can relate and want redemption. I love your idea of reading a scripture for each comment you read...Lisa notes...https://www.blogger.com/profile/07103364395238899215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5952217323580442767.post-61275538317684180662014-03-06T05:52:43.139-06:002014-03-06T05:52:43.139-06:00You are so precious, bless you.You are so precious, bless you.Denisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09275456448997619944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5952217323580442767.post-60819763923114034712014-03-05T22:24:04.870-06:002014-03-05T22:24:04.870-06:00This post grabbed my heart so.

The peace is a promise, ours for the taking. Wow. Praying that both of us will take what is ours, for the free and lovely gift that it is.

A heart trembling at its deceitfulness and humbly sharing all in a public venue is an awesome thing indeed! We are honoured to be walking this path with you, my friend.<br />God knows your need of peace above all.

However, this morning in my quiet time, the Lord revealed yet ANOTHER lie...another idol, more insidious than the rest.<br />I pray you find rest from the need for approval and that the Lord reveals practical ways in which to gain your freedom.
