spring is here...and it's beautiful

I'm going to make this an almost wordless post. Hope you enjoy the pictures. I've been a bit under the weather - hoping I cheer up soon.

God is my strong fortress; and he makes my way perfect.
2 Samuel 22:33

Hope you're having a great Sunday!

Sunday verse

You have circled this mountain long enough.
Now go north.
Deut 2:3

I read this verse in a devotion earlier this week and it made so much sense.

Happy Sunday!

Sunday Verse

Do not be afraid or discouraged,
for the Lord will personally go ahead of you.
He will be with you;
He will neither fail you or abandon you.

Sunday verse

Get all the advice and instruction you can,
So you will be wise the rest of your life.
You can make many plans,
But the Lord's purpose will prevail.
Loyalty makes a person attractive.
It is better to be poor than dishonest.
Proverbs 19: 20-22

I will be here with the windows open watching I Love Lucy on the Hallmark Channel - I just love I Love Lucy!

Thank you Lord for a beautiful Sunday!!

Sunday verse

Psalm 100

Shout with joy to the Lord, all the earth!
Worship the Lord with gladness.
Come before him, singing with joy.
Acknowledge that the Lord is God!
He made us, and we are his.
We are his people, the sheep of his pasture.
Enter his gates with thanksgiving;
go into his courts with praise.
Give thanks to him and praise his name.
For the Lord is good.
His unfailing love continues forever,
And his faithfulness continues to each generation.

Happy Sunday!

Sunday verse

This morning I was answering some questions in a workbook from a study I'm doing and these verses were mentioned:

Hebrews 12:5-8
5-6
And have you forgotten the encouraging words God spoke to you as his children? He said, "My child, don't make light of the Lord's discipline, and don't give up when he corrects you. For the Lord disciplines those he loves, and he punishes each one he acceps as his child."
7-8
As you endure this divine discipline, remember that God is treating you as his own children. Who ever heard of a child who is never disciplined by its father? If God doesn't discipline you as he does all his children, it means that you are illegitimate and are not really his children at all.

This was very thought-provoking to me and helps put struggles into perspective. It also helps me understand how some people seem to get away with anything and may seem never to get punished for their behavior or the hurtful words they say. How sad this is and these are the people we really need to pray for.

Happy Sunday! Spend it with your loved ones!

Sunday verse

Isaiah 40:31
But those who trust in the Lord will find new strength.
They will soar high on wings like eagles.
They will run and not grow weary.
They will walk and not faint.

I love this verse - it brings great comfort.

These words are included in an awesome song by Lincoln Brewster called "Everlasting God.". Check it out!
