Man, who is born of woman, is short-lived and full of turmoil. Like a flower he comes forth and withers. He also flees like a shadow and does not remain.
Job 14: 1-2
He will be like a tree firmly planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in its season and its leaf does not wither; and in whatever he does he prospers.
Psalm 1: 3
My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? Far from my deliverance are the words of my groaning. O my God, I cry by day, but you do not answer; and by night but I have no rest. Yet you are holy…
Psalm 22: 1-3
Why do you say, O Jacob, and assert O Israel, “My way is hidden from the Lord, and the justice due me escapes the notice of my God?” Do you not know? Have you not heard? The everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth, does not become weary or tired. His understanding is inscrutable.
Isaiah 40: 28-29
My heart is in anguish within me…
Psalm 55: 4
My heart is steadfast, O God, my heart is steadfast; I will sing, yes, I will sing praises!
Psalm 57: 7
The Lord has disciplined me severely, but He has not given me over to death.Psalm 118: 18
And He put a new song in my mouth, a song of praise to our God…
Psalm 40: 3
We are home in MA ~ as you can see. Twinge of sadness this morning over the chill of the weather and the locale and the awaiting responsibilities. Lifted prayer for a sustaining; a pouring out of grace to transition in these extremes. He hears. Both there and here, I could feel the “great reversal” I’ve been asking for being accomplished inside of me. There is joy. There is hopeful surrender. He is purposeful in the lows and abundant in the highs….always good…..always holy.
Praising Him for these gifts.
Prayed for that reversal for you just yesterday, a New song. Loved visiting with you.
Christy, thank you so much for praying for me. I KNOW that is how the transformation is taking place. SO good to see you, too. Hope Two Two is starting to sleep through the night ~ and you also.
You are back!! yeahh!!!
Love you…
