A lovely promise from the Everlasting Father.

One I’ve cried countless tears over.

As I try to find the balance between being at the feet of Jesus all chances I can get and living fruitfully this life He’s given me.

And finding courage to face each day with joy. It seems to be a learned habit.

Am I wrong about that?

For me it does take discipline. It’s so easy to get comfortable within sorrow. I don’t want sorrow to be my idol.

Studying Hebrew has brought me closer than I’d ever hoped to Him. And I’ve this childlike delight with the Word. I praise Him for His faithfulness and for drawing close to me as I draw close to Him.

A close walk with the Lord is such a blessing! We choose to draw near, and we practice spiritual disciplines that will nurture our personal relationship with the Lord.

God bless you.

Amen! And thanks for the kind words. 🙏🏼

Your mention of, “Spiritual disciplines,” reminds me of how they speak at Renovaré. And there’s a book their founder wrote, called, “Celebration of Discipline,” it’s at the top of my reading list. Actually, I may start reading this evening.

I so want my life to be a testament of His never ending mercy.

I know what it’s like to have my cup overflowing. And I want to be adept at pouring into others how He pours into me. ✝️
