There is a chamber in every heart which is filled to overflowing with sorrow.
There is a larger chamber in every heart made to hold joy, but, unfortunately,
that vessel is oft-neglected, little used, only partially filled,
or sorrowfully empty.

"Mere Christianity" by C.S. Lewis. This is fundamentally what Christianity is all about.
"The Case for Christ" by Lee Strobel. Another converted atheist presents His compelling case for believing in Jesus.
"Left To Tell" by Imaculee Ilibagiza. This profound work is her own extraordinary story of endurance, discovery of the Holy Spirit, grace, healing, and an astonishingly compelling account of the necessity for forgiveness.
"The Circle" 4-book series by Ted Dekker.
A man is the bridge between two very different worlds. Sound familiar? Can he save both? This T.D. work is brilliant in my book.
"This Present Darkness" and "Piercing the Darkness" by Frank E. Peretti. Tales of spiritual warfare from a unique perspective. Stirred a small controversy, but sold millions. What are we Christians afraid of? Hey, it's fiction!
The content here's not to be used,
But to only be read and perused.
If you copy it off,
My lawyer's not soft,
And your fortune is mine - you got sued!

Thank you for the words that remind us to tend to that larger chamber. I think you are right, Len. We all have the chamber that holds sorrow. We want that other chamber, the one that holds joy, to be filled to the top and bulging! Blessings to you and all whose hearts long for joy and more joy…

Pressed down, shaken, and running over, even! Amen!
Blessings back, Carol Ann!
(Soon I will publish a poem about the despair of one who longs for some thing(s) (they) cannot get.)
It could be about me. My readers should be concerned – very concerned . . . .
