Ebenezer

For some reason I was in a hymn-singing mood yesterday.  I went walking after work, with “Nearer My God to Thee” for the first mile and “Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing” as my companion in the second mile.   In that second mile I started processing the day with God.

And in the midst of the thoughts, I realized there was some lingering sadness for a situation that had occurred in the past several years. The situation caused a sense of emotional loss and grief. “This is stupid,” I said to God. “There’s no use carrying this around.  But how do I get rid of it?”
