I think He wants to answer my prayers. Really! He wants to answer our prayers! Believe it!23 “When that day comes, you won’t ask anything of me! Yes, indeed! I tell you that whatever you ask from the Father, he will give you in my name. 24 Till now you haven’t asked for anything in my name. Keep asking, and you will receive, so that your joy may be complete. [source]
I think He is eager, like leaning over the sphere of Heaven, there on His Throne ready to give good things to me. . . . Yet because you relied on Adonai, he handed them over to you. 9 For the eyes of Adonai move here and there throughout the whole earth, to show himself strong on behalf of those who are wholehearted toward him. . . .[source] See what I mean? He is Ready, Willing and Able to do good things for and to and through me! But not just me, YOU too.
Today I am thinking He wants communication with me. He sends us messages all through the day. He wants us to see them, hear them and respond to His love for us in them. On this cold January morning from my warm dining area window I saw a pansy – just hanging on through the cold. (That is ice in the pink basket.) Beautiful, isn’t it? Small, yet strong, resilient, blooming alone in the cold. He sustains the flowers. He will surely sustain and hold us too. 5 Keep your lives free from the love of money; and be satisfied with what you have; for God himself has said, “I will never fail you or abandon you.”[source]
Never fail you or abandon you – He wants us to know that. And you know what I think? If we will with our whole hearts believe Him, well, that will do more than a lot for us! :)
Now it’s your turn if you are so inclined. Is ABBA saying something to you with the Pansy, His Word or . . . ? Will you share? Comment or email— I’ll be delighted to receive either way.
I’ve almost missed it (and I might still if I don’t hurry). Writing for the LOFT on this subject I mean. The end of 2015 and beginning of 2016 found me so out-of-pocket and on the move that I admittedly did not settle and quiet myself long enough to hear a Word for 2016. But today 11 days in I have it!
Breathe!
DADDY GOD has such a sense of humor. :)
Breathe. We do it or die. No doubt there is much to learn this year, so I start with slow down and breathe. Slow down as I RUSH to meet the less than one hour closing window to link this post. Perhaps at a slower pace I’ll have more to write about my word: Breathe. For now Breathe on me, Holy Spirit, breathe on me. Take thou my heart, cleanse every part, Holy Spirit, breathe on me. And as He does, I will breathe. For complete lyrics click HERE.
We are glad you are here; stay a while, look around, and be encouraged. We estimate there to be over 3,000 posts here at The White Stone Blog. Please know my hope is ALWAYS to help and NEVER harm. I have voiced many opinions and thoughts here since 2007 and by now I MAY NOT EVEN AGREE with all of them and some of my grammar and punctuation likely needs editing. But this is changeless: JESUS is our ONLY Savior and Hope. Do you KNOW Him?
