I want to extend a special welcome to the women who are joining this blog from my website: www.divorcehelpforChristianwomen.com. I'm always amazed at your strength and perseverance.
I know the bewilderment of being in that desert place and feeling lost and alone. It isn't easy. But God is faithful.
As Richard Rohr says in The Authority of Those Who Have Suffered, "Those who have walked this transformative journey through death to resurrection are the ones who have the authority to say” I know God.” They are drawing upon a Life larger than their own. It is not a belief system but an actual “knowing”. Instead of just “I believe there is a God”, God becomes a “well springing up within us” (John 4:14), a lived experience and a constant Presence.
May we continue to experience His constant presence in our lives.

Debbie,
ReplyDeleteI am very new at this and honestly have no idea how much of this social networking works. I am going through a divorce and am looking for any type of positive connections I can make to help me get through. I am a woman of faith, but am having trouble asking for the assistance of women in our congregation.
