“Christ is not merely a summer sun of the prosperous
but a winter fire for the unfortunate.”
G.K. Chesterton (1874-1936)

I KEEP IT SHORT & SIMPLE.
Why?Almost half of American adults read below high school level. God looks at your heart, not your reading skills. Big faith can be built on simple words.

And now must come the winter’s chill,
and I’m far too hurt to live;
regardless of my strength of will,
I’ve not much more to give.
The cold cuts deep into my heart,
malicious and so very vain
to make its face my deepest part,
there to thus remain.
I need the fires of the sun,
and hope’s distant light
to counter what I fear’s begun,
the falling of the night.
Lord, oh please, do send some warmth
if only from an open hearth.
May the prayers of your friends fan the spark of “hope’s distant light” into a roaring flame deep in your soul, Andrew.
Thank you so much…these days are like having recurrences of malaria, but rather worse, chills, sweats, headaches and all.
