Robert Bly talks about the long bag we all drag behind us.

We all bear burdens no one knows about.  “The hardest things are not those that the world knows of. Down in your secret soul unseen and unknown by any but Jesus, there is a little trial that you would not dare to mention, that is harder for you to bear than martyrdom.” [i] Streams in the Desert  Connect with us:  YouTube: YouTube.com/@soul02-oxygen   Facebook: @LP.Oxygen  https://www.facebook.com/...

 Historian Charles A. Beard summed up history in four sentences:  “Whom the gods would destroy, they first make mad with power.  The mills of God grind slowly, but they grind exceedingly small.  The bee fertilizes the flower it robs.  When it is dark enough, you can see the stars.”  ― Charles A.

What you think of when you think of the word, “solitude”? Some might think about loneliness or separation, rejection, or abandonment.

It is very normal to have seasons where you become disillusioned with God. You become disappointed and wonder if He really cares.  Those seasons tell you that there’s a lot more to God than just the bright peachy- -positive side of life.    Connect with us:  Website: https://soul02.com/  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbO2okn56Cs8pT7rfisN4Qw/featured  Facebook: @LP.Oxygen  https://www.f...

Oswald Chambers once said,  “Our position is not ours until we make it ours by suffering. The author who benefits you is not the one who tells you something you did not know before, but the one who gives expression to the truth that has been struggling for utterance in you.” Oswald Chambers  Connect:  Website: https://soul02.com/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbO2okn56Cs8pT7rfisN4Qw/fe...
