AGE-LONG MINUTE

"Hold us quiet through the age-long minute,
while thou art silent and when the wind is shrill,

Can the boat sink, Lord, while you art in It?
Can the heart faint that waiteth on thy will?"

Amy Carmichael
Quoted in Craving Connection  p. 70/Stacey Thacker
Broadman and Holman 2017

Our own pain is hard to bear. Our own fear. But oh, the pain and fear of our child!
Stacey Thacker holds her child through ugly tests--through the age-long minutes.

She asks, "Does our God do any less for His daughters?"

Humbled By The Faith Of Those In Pain,
Lonnie
