Each of us has inside something we are looking for or something we think we are missing in life. It is that 'object' or 'event' that if it just was resolved or if it just happened we could be happy. We wait and wait on that to come to us...watching out the window for it to 'arrive'.
As you pass through this day begin new ways of responding to challenging relationships and ruts you are in. Take a look at those habitual sins and see what needs to be dropped for the day.
God has the power to save each of us. We can be free.
Dispel our darkness with the light of your presence, and make us worthy of your gifts.
We are celebrating three days of constant rain in east Texas where we have been under drought for two years. I cannot tell you the number of days we gazed out this window and prayed for rain and only the sun was there beating down, the heat slowly killing our lands and forested areas. Relief came, but it came in His time, not ours.
Words from my heart
Laurie
"Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel; he has come to his people and set them free. He has raised up for us a mighty savior, born of the house of his servant David. Through his holy prophets he promised of old that he would save us from our enemies, from the hands of all who hate us. He promised to show mercy to our fathers and to remember his holy covenant. This was the oath he swore to our father Abraham: to set us free from the hands of our enemies, free to worship him without fear, holy and righteous in his sight all the days of our life." Luke 1: 68-75
