Mary Alice Potter (North Carolina, USA)
Those who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength, they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint. - Isaiah 40:31 (NRSV)
A few years ago I retired from ministry after about 40 years, and then four months later my husband died after a long illness. He had also been in ministry over 40 years. My grief continues to be monumental. As time goes by I ask myself, What now? Day by...
I can find renewed strength as I wait for the Lord.

The RESILIENCE conference in 2021 was so uplifting and nourishing. It was wonderful to be with other Christians around the world at this retreat, who truly care about responding to trauma in a compassionate way by teaching spiritual practices to help with grounding and healing.”
Join us for the next RESILIENCE conference on September 29-30, 2023. Learn more at UpperRoom.org/resilience.
