My heart faints within me!” Job 19:25-27 Then I will finally see clearly and my doubts will be washed away. “For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I have been fully known.” 1 Corinthians 13:12  Juliane Wiebracht is a homemaker in Longview, TX who shares God’s love with women who are incarcerated. www.himpowermagazine.com  11
