When life stands between this screen and me, I miss you. It is at these times I know The White Stone is more for me than for you; but thank you for sharing this gathering place with me.

Psalm 13.
Starts in the natural. Ends in the Supernatural.

Look. Identify with the Psalmist.

See that he had feet of clay. See that he had doubts. See that he had fears. See that he questioned. See that he wanted ‘it’ to be different.

Then see what made the difference.

13 (0) For the leader. A psalm of David:
2 (1) How long, Adonai?
Will you forget me forever?
How long will you hide your face from me?
3 (2) How long must I keep asking myself what to do,
with sorrow in my heart every day?
How long must my enemy dominate me?
4 (3) Look, and answer me, Adonai my God!
Give light to my eyes, or I will sleep the sleep of death.
5 (4) Then my enemy would say, “I was able to beat him”;
and my adversaries would rejoice at my downfall.
6 (5) But I trust in your grace,
my heart rejoices as you bring me to safety.
(6) I will sing to Adonai, because he gives me
even more than I need.

via Ps 13 KJV;CJB – How long wilt thou forget me, O LORD? – Bible Gateway.

BUT.
But I TRUST

AS
As You are bringing me to safety, ABBA I trust. Not

WHEN You bring me to safety.

BIG DIFFERENCE.

I want to practice the BIG DIFFERENCE today. And I want you to, too.

ABBA, thank You. BUT I TRUST and AS not when. You have given us Wisdom here and by Your Strength and Grace we will make use of it today for YESHUA’s sake and our own. So this is my prayer for each dear friend who gathers here today to allow Your wisdom to be applied to this day in us. Someone close and dear is on my mind even now, wanting so much for her to see this passage; to identify and take up this wisdom living. And me too; least I fall myself this very day.
And still we are praying for Terri and family. Kerri. Dori. Pat & Rosalie. Leslie – all those who sit around that table with me. Alyssa and her family. The men and their families of the Baseball Camp this year. Israel: peace and protection. America: repentance and revival. And other dear friends whose faces we see. Thank You for the safe return of the mission teams and for the work done – keep it going HOLY SPIRIT. ABBA, this covers much and yet so little; even so we bring them, baggage and all. Mary: strong and faithful and at risk; comfort her, steady her, protect her and in time bring her through to the new life You have for her. Thank You for reading our hearts and minds and perfecting our prayers for Your Answers and helps to us all in JESUS name.

The Lord by wisdom founded the earth, By understanding He established the heavens.

via Pro 3:19 NASB – The LORD by wisdom founded the earth, – Bible Gateway.

As we go into the weekend, ponder the wisdom of GOD. As I continue to think about how He created this planet and the universe, his wisdom keeps coming to mind as recorded in His Word.

Moreover, He has promised to impart wisdom to us if we ask.

 But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all generously and without reproach, and it will be given to him.

via James 1:5 NASB;CJB – But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him – Bible Gateway.

Go back with me to Exodus. The People are about to build the Tent of Meeting. The Tabernacle of the congregation; and the LORD calls certain people to come and work. Read what is recorded for our learning:

3 And I have filled him with the spirit of God, in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship,
4 To devise cunning works, to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass,
5 And in cutting of stones, to set them, and in carving of timber, to work in all manner of workmanship.

via Exodus 31 KJV;CJB – And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, – Bible Gateway.

Do you see it? A principle we can rely upon. When ABBA calls us to a work; He provides the wisdom and the skills to do that work. I like that! I hope you will read all of Exodus 31 and enjoy the details.

So what have you been called to? Whatever it is. Whatever season of life ABBA has you right now, His wisdom, understanding, knowledge, skill in workmanship is available to you. ASK and receive.

ABBA, thank You. I like what we have read. I like seeing the details. And in the simplicity of a child: ABBA, You are so smart! For sure You are ALL KNOWING and I am so glad about that! Thank You for wisdom, for knowledge, for skills in all manner of workmanship that You impart to us as we are called and as we set our hands to obey You. Thank You.
I still have Alyssa in mind this morning. She and her family and still trusting You to hold them up and together and that You will heal Alyssa. And Gloria that I met yesterday. A beautiful lady and her husband. Thank You for the privilege and for the years You have extended to her beyond what physicians told her. I pray You will give her more years to serve You here. She is a blessing. Thank You.
And as I think over yesterday, thank You. Thank You for carefully watching over the details. YOU ARE SO AWESOME and so GOOD. Thank You.
Others come to mind in these moments: Kerri. Still asking for a miracle there. Dori. Terri and family. The Mission Trips. The Baseball Camp this weekend: safety and protection from injury; and fellowship, edification and salvation(s) is my prayer for them, ABBA. Israel: peace and protection. America: repentance and revival. And our Readers, always our Readers, ABBA. Those who gather here with us, blessings and favor upon them that they may KNOW Your Presence in the mundane things and give You glory. And Mary. Dear and Precious Mary as she grieves. 50 years with Terry. So many memories. A wonderful life and marriage. So many will miss him but You have a plan, ABBA. And we pray for holy trust. Please fill  that huge, huge void for Mary with Yourself. Amen and amen, YESHUA.

Assurance - Promise, Foundation, Prayer Requests

Come, Inherit!

As we pray this morning please pray for Alyssa. She is 10 years old and has a veinous malformation or webbed vein mass. It is more serious than I have the vocabulary to describe to you. Mid month, Alyssa and her family will be traveling to be seen by a renown physician who treats these conditions. Alyssa’s grandmother is a treasured friend; she and I are asking you to pray.

Having yesterday finished reading Steve Biggs’ book, Beyond A Reasonable Doubt, this verse of Scripture is particularly sweet to me this morning.

34 “Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you whom my Father has blessed, take your inheritance, the Kingdom prepared for you from the founding of the world.

via Matthew 25 CJB;KJ21 – “The Kingdom of Heaven at that time – Bible Gateway.

How often do we allow the HOLY SPIRIT to remind us that from the beginning of time when GOD set to create a world that we could inhabit, HE was thinking of you (and me) and preparing for you (and me) a place and a means we could live with HIM forever?

Does not that warrant some meditating and praising today?

ABBA, thank You for being You; for the GOD of Wonder You are; for being unfathomable and yet in CHRIST JESUS not only being approachable but knowable, intimately knowable. Thank You. Thank You for planning for us from the beginning of time. Thank You for beginning and completing a world for us and entering that world to show us Yourself. Thank You.
And, ABBA, this morning we are thinking of Alyssa and her family – parents, grandparents, siblings, and the trauma of this season. I cannot get my mind around this even enough to form this prayer; only trust You to hold this family and heal this child. You know we have other cares too. Others to cast upon You and You have commanded us to do so; so we are. Kerri. A miracle is what I am asking for, ABBA. Terri. We praise You for the good report given yesterday. Thank You. But we are not done asking; so much more needed there with healing and restoration all around. The two mission trips: the people and their needs. Israel: peace and protection. America:Revival and repentance. And especially the people who gather in their respective places at this page, ABBA, special people to me and for them I ask blessings; for them to KNOW You well and intimately; for them to be highly favored with discernment and wisdom, with a deep understanding of Your Word and to be enabled to enlighten others; to be prayer warriors with me and to glorify You and make Your Name known in their corners of this world; to experience Your strength and provisions for every challenge and need they have; to be holy and happy in YESHUA today. And in all this, ABBA, thank You for loving us and being our GOD, our Creator, and our Coming King.
