Susan Lafferty“The Lord’s lamp sheds light on a person’s life, searching the innermost parts” (Proverbs 20:27).
Searching out secret compartments and hidden recesses that need to be opened. Exposed.
His lamp. Illuminating darkness.
When love runs out? I’ve been there.
And life lessons confirm my weakness. Insufficiency. To love in my own strength.
But He faithfully leads me to the truth.
My love runs out. His never does.
Little stacks of memories. On the floor.
Newspaper clippings browned with age. Aerogramme letters, typed full-length and on the flaps. Magazine articles. Journal entries.
There’s no time to read every word.
So we glance. Skim. Scan for tidbits of life history.
And laugh over stories long forgotten.
