The Initiative is always with God.
"The Impinging God is intent on unleashing Himself to you."
from The Impact of God.
The Approaching God lingers.
The Key Word in this weighty point is t.h.i.s.
We are not about achievement.
We are all about getting out of the way.
The emphasis is not forging ahead.
Move.
God hungers to take up space within us.
"Through God we will do valiantly,
And it is He Who shall tread down what opposes us."
When our hearts are wounded within---
and they all are---
Help me O Lord my God
And let those who come against me
know that T.h.i.s. is Your Hand
Psalm 108:22
Whatever You allow.
Psalm 112:7 was the verse that came to mind on Tuesday
When the doctor called to say, once again, it was cancer,
May we not fear bad reports
May our hearts be steadfast, trusting.
PRAYER FROM THE PSALMS
Psalm 112:4
Thank You that Light arises in our Darkness.
You are Gracious and Compassionate and Righteous.
Stayed up late last night to post. I think I forgot to hit publish. Hope your Fourth was a really good one reflecting on all God is doing in you and in our country.
ReplyDeleteGod pursues us, He longs to fill us with the Holy Spirit, fill the emptiness, heal and fix the broken places. What am I pursuing? The things of the Lord or the things of this earth?
