Are You in a Bad Place?

 June 27

 “I’m in a bad place,” After listening to his story Joy kneels before him and prays. He sits stiffly, his wife cries.

 At communion a month later our pastor invites all. “I want you to feel welcomed with a hug from the Lord himself.” Our friend comes down the isle tears streaming down his face and wraps his arms around an elder at the communion table and bawls. He is with his God again.

 “God brought me up out of a horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet on a rock, and established my steps.”(Psalm 40:2)
