That image sure has my imagination fired up, wondering where it is and what that stone wall signified to the people who built it. May our own nation look to God as the source for all the good that we enjoy every day.
We live in an historic copper mining region. These ruins are what's left of the Quincy Mine Dry House - built about 1860. The dry house is where the miners could change in and out of their work gear and wash up before returning home at the end of their shift. I echo your prayer for our nation.
So many reasons to praise God even in the down times because we know he is always there. Have a nice week ahead. The building in the photo reminds me of days of the Old Testament.
I'm sure those walls would have stories to tell of the miners that once used the building. May we always praise the Lord and never take his mercy for granted!
So grateful for to be reminded this morning His truth will endure forever. Blessings!

ReplyDeleteI love that this verse says "merciful kindness," not just kindness.
