This is Blog #40 for Divine Presence - forty powerful opportunities to share myself and my journey with others. This has been a very interesting year for me in so many ways. I have been totally transformed and made anew in God. Two words have been with me and sustained me throughout this year, and they are "waiting and trusting in God." These are the scriptures that I love and that keep me strong and focused.
"Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding. In all ways acknowledge God, and God shall direct your paths. Proverbs 3:5-6
"Those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength, they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint." Isaiah 40:31
Just wanted to share something MLK wrote;
ReplyDeleteThis life, therefore, is not righteousness, but growth in righteousness; not health, but healing; not being, but becoming; not rest, but exercise. We are not yet what we shall be, but we are growing toward it. The process is not yet finished, but it is going on. This is not the end, but it is the road. All does not yet gleam in glory, but all is being purified.
Wow. Thanks for the comment. So very, very true. Always growing, moving, learning and becoming. Indeed the process is not yet finished. So much to think about and reflect on. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteLord,
ReplyDeleteForgive me for trying to handle this fear all by myself.
Just now I give it to you.
Weave it into the fabric of my life, as you will.
I trust you, Lord Jesus. Amen.
