"Earth's crammed with heaven, And every common bush afire with God; But only he who sees takes off his shoes; The rest sit round it and pluck blackberries." Elizabeth Barrett Browning.

Painful discipline
I am very sick today. Spent several hours in the oncology center trying to control the naseau. Home but not much relief. Remembering Heb 12:11, "All discipline at the moment is painful and not pleasant, yet later on it yeilds the peaceful fruit of righteousness for those who have been trained by it." Much groaning this day and remembering that this is part of the "labor" which will end in a glorious resurrection and the full experience of being God's adopted son through Christ (Romans 8:18-26). That's all for now. Pray for endurance.
