Letter to Subscribers from the Portland Branch Council
Dear Readers, As subscribers to our newsletter you have received an email with the subject line ‘Portland Branch July 2021 Newsletter.’ However, as usual our newsletter was intended to be on hiatus in July. The piece that you received was put out by an individual out...King David’ Path
Some feel their need grows greater by the day.
Some feel alone.
Some are burdened, angry, worried for what will happen to their children
or simply sad that humanity has come to this.
We’re all combatants in a spiritual war.
They suffer most who seek for what is true
and will not take the easy road that others force on them.
God takes our raw emotions and works with them.
He’ll bring us through
into a deeper closeness to His realm.
Prayer helps us to accept. Prayer lifts our load
and brings us to the place where all is light.
But we must still go through these dark, dark times
when nothing turns out right.
Periods of utter loneliness are part of the path we walk.
King David felt them – we, today, are just the same as him
as God perfects us slowly and we learn to do His will.
