“What if illness - the stripping away of our health, our dreams, our understanding of who we are and what our future holds - is really a gift - God offering Himself to us unencumbered by all the noise, all the things that clutter our hearts and so easily fill our days? Because what if that quiet, stripped-away space is where hope is found? Where God leans in close whispering love to our weary souls until it becomes as familiar as the beating of our own hearts?” GodFaithHopeTrustQuietIllnessGiftClutterWeary SoulsWhispering Love Book:Discovering Hope: Beginning the Journey Toward Hope in Chronic Illness Source: Discovering Hope: Beginning the Journey Toward Hope in Chronic Illness
