22 For we know that the whole creation has been groaning together in the pains of childbirth until now. 23 And not only the creation, but we ourselves, who have the first fruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for adoption as sons, the redemption of our bodies.
The Scriptures are unique because we don't think of an entire letter, or chapter, and remember it in times of need. God just gives us a few words and we are comforted.
Gardeners know something my grandmother cherished and prayed. Camellias are unusual flowers, vibrant, they drop to the ground almost whole to be collected by The Gardener.
We see suffering in the world. It can be fierce. There is a Plan. And the One Who loves you most, will come to you in your suffering, your purpose will be fulfilled. The promises of the LORD are sure. One of the places of Sanctuary for you, look for the holiness of your Church, as you are still, pray for your Church.
1 Corinthians 13:12
Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.
it shall not return to me empty,
but it shall accomplish that which I purpose,
and shall succeed in the thing for which I sent it.
