My brother is currently serving in Iraq and we are praying for him daily. It is hard when you worry about someone so far away. I was thinking recently what the difference was between worrying about someone far away vs right in my own home. I have had to realize that I do not have control over every circumstance whether near or far. Only God has that privilege. Somehow, being close by makes me feel like I do! I need to trust God whether near or far because only He knows and controls the future.
Ecclesiasties 8:16-17
" When I applied my mind to know wisdom and to observe man's labor on earth—his eyes not seeing sleep day or night- then I saw all that God has done. No one can comprehend what goes on under the sun. Despite all his efforts to search it out, man cannot discover its meaning. Even if a wise man claims he knows, he cannot really comprehend it."
Here ya go

Emily, you have such a gift with these devotional thoughts and perfect scriptures to go along. Maybe now is the time to get some volumns of these published. Could be a way to bring in income if it hits the big sellers. What is so good is that it is to the point and pictures really emphasize your point and easy read. That's what a lot of folks would go for these days. Think about it. Love Mom
