Verses I Like

            I know I keep doing this and someday I will write something from them. Right now, though, I want to just remember the verses I like and maybe the thoughts will come back later when I look at them again. This is probably the 2nd or 3rd entry I have done like this. Life has also just been so busy that I haven't had time to write a real entry. These verses have been on my draft page since last year (2017) since at least November. I am also doing one entry so I can clean out my drafts on here.  I promise to get one or two writing ones on here this Memorial Day weekend. We'll see if it will happen.

Blessed:

Genesis 12:1New International Version (NIV)

The Call of Abram

12 The Lord had said to Abram, “Go from your country, your people and your father’s household to the land I will show you.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
What are you asking me to step into, God? And why here and why now and why me?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Luke 1:45New International Version (NIV)

45 Blessed is she who has believed that the Lord would fulfill his promises to her!”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"And this blessing isn't always what we think-the happy ending we wanted and the desires of our hearts fulfilled. Blessed is she who believes His promises. This blessing is different than blessing as the world sees it. It isn't an easy life or one of success. Blessing is that, as we find ourselves in a place that God has yet to explain, may never explain, a place or a life that doesn't line up with what we had in mind, HE gives us a promise like HE gave to Abraham. It is the promise of Emmanuel, God with us. He will be here with us, or reward."-

Watch:

Proverbs 27:23New International Version (NIV)

23 Be sure you know the condition of your flocks,
    give careful attention to your herds.

Forget the Former Things:

   

 "Forget the former things, do not dwell on the past. See I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up, do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams int he wasteland."

-Isaiah 43:18-19
