I can't remember struggling to write an article as much as I have today to write an article for this month's issue. My heart is so heavy for so many personal friends and artists who are facing very difficult circumstances in their lives. I want each of you to know that you are in our prayers. If we REALLY are the church then we should lament when our brother or sister is suffering pain. It must surely grieve the heart of God when his children inflict pain on one another with their words, actions or attitudes.

Psalm 37:23 The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord: and he delighteth in his way.
24. Though he fall: he shall not be utterly cast down: for the Lord upholdeth him with his hand.
25. I have been young and now am old: yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread.
26. He is ever merciful, and lendeth: and his seed is blessed.
27. Depart from evil and do good: and dwell for evermore.

God is a God of mercy and I am so thankful for that because we have all stood in need of His mercy! If the Lord is committed to upholding the fallen, shouldn't we be committed to doing the same?

Please do not misinterpret this as a plea to cover sin or wrongdoing. It is not!! God is the only one who can judge evil but we are commanded to love one another!

I hope that this reminder provides hope to some broken heart that feels abandoned and forsaken! God loves you so much and He knows where you are at and the brokenness you feel. I hope that you will read the Bible for direction and strength. God's Word is ALWAYS true and it will NEVER let you down!! I pray you will feel His love for you right now!
