Encouragement From Narnia (Chapter 1 of The Silver Chair, by C.S. Lewis)

“The sound of Edith Jackle’s voice stopped as suddenly as the voice on the radio when it is switched off. Instantly there was a quite different sound all about them. It came from those bright things overhead, which turned out to be birds.” ~ from chapter 1, The Silver Chair, by C.S. Lewis

The troubles of this world can seem impossibly big. And sometimes when I’m faced with that kind of trouble, I forget that God is so much more powerful than whatever I’m up against. When I remember Him, who He is, and all He’s done, my eyes brighten and my troubles grow quieter. And though, in this world, I’m not always set free from whatever problem I’m facing, God lifts my head upwards so that I can see beyond the problem, like seeing the vast sky beyond an imposing mountain.

“For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I shall know just as I also am known.” ~ 1 Corinthians 13:12

Blessings to you,
