August 22 "Grace in the Wilderness" Jeremiah 31:2

Found.

Grace.

grace in the wilderness—

When you went to find rest.
When you let go of what is in your hand.

"The LORD appears, saying:
'I have loved you with an everlasting love.'
Therefore, I have drawn you with lovingkindness.
I will build you."

Jeremiah 31:2-4

The sweetest thing, according to C.S. Lewis,
is the longing to find where all This Beauty came from.
The quest for rest calls to surrender to God's blueprint.
Fully known, fully loved, says Piper.
Loved with an Everlasting Love that we can never lose.
Drawn with Lovingkindness that rebuilds us.
