Read with me cover-to-cover. 2024. Share what I've learned in the dark, in the light. Start the Old & on January 1st. About 3 chapters per day. About 15 minutes of your day. Join us as the "axe of Biblical Love thaws the frozen parts" (66LL) in our hearts. My focus this year is sharing what God has done for me over the years---and trusting God to weave every single day.

August 17 "The Stump May Shoot Up" Daniel 1-11
Leave the stump, bound with a band of iron and bronze. Daniel 4:15
Metaphorically speaking, the band of iron represented afflictions.
There was hope that the stump might shoot forth back into life.
That was my story a decade ago. Someone shared this verse with me.
A verse about King Nebuchadnezzar who was a "monument of the
power of Divine grace, and of the riches of Divine mercy." M.Henry
He recovered from his madness. Recovered from his pride of forgetting God.
"Whatever affliction God is pleased to lay upon us,
may we have cause to bear it patiently, and to be thankful
that he continues the use of our reason, and the peace of our consciences." M.Henry
