The God of All Compassion



               "You people who live in Jerusalem will not weep any more. The LORD is 
           compassionate, and when you cry to him for help, he will 
answer you."      

                                                          Isaiah 30:19 (TEV)
 

I received the following email from Jeanne Cowan who lost her sister last week.   I asked her for permission to pass it on to you.   What immediately struck me about what she wrote is that her words are not just words that she is hoping will help her.  Rather she is writing about something real, about what she is experiencing from God, about something concrete and real that God is bringing about.   Jeff  

“This (above) picture reminded me of your sermon and all God can do.  This is a male eagle that had a wing injury in July.  He was found and take-in by the Nature Dept. in NY and given rehabilitation.  Now just Nov. 2 he has been released to the very same area and is ready to soar. 

It made me think of things in light of this world we live in and all we go through.   Brokenness happens, but God can pick you up, and through His compassion through others, healing, and time . . . . Soon you are ready to be released and soon you will SOAR again..   

This is how I am feeling . . . God is good all the time and even in the midst of losing someone very dear to me . . . God is good . . . He is healing . . .  and He blesses me with our caring people to show compassion in so many ways that aid that healing.  Then soon like the eagle
I know it is soaring time again.  Yeah . . .  Love that picture.

Good sermon last week . . .  and thought this went with it.

Blessings,  Jeanne
