The Wisdom and Knowledge of God!

Oh, the depth of the riches of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable his judgments, and his paths beyond tracing out! — Romans 11:33 

God's wisdom is deep and rich.

His knowledge is 

His judgments are unsearchable.

We have no way to trace out his paths.

Oh, the depth of his riches!

I Lack Nothing

The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing. He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths for his name’s sake. — Psalm 23:1-3 

With God as my shepherd, I lack nothing.

He makes me lie down to rest in green pastures.

God leads me beside quiet water.

He gives my soul refreshment.

And He guides me along the right paths.

All this for His name's sake.

The. Wisdom and Knowledge of God

Oh, the depth of the riches of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable his judgments, and his paths beyond tracing out! — Romans 11:33 

I've been reading Proverbs and the wisdom of Solomon.

The riches of God's wisdom is especially evident in these passages.

His knowledge is deeper than we can comprehend.

And the fact that He gave Solomon wisdom is amazing.

The Lord's judgments are unsearchable.

His compassion and love are overwhelming.

And His mercy is beyond our understanding.

His is our loving and merciful Father!

The Lord Is My Shepherd

The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing. He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths for his name’s sake. — Psalm 23:1-3 

The Lord Jesus is my shepherd.

He guides me where I should go, when I let Him.

And He provides just what I need when I need it.

He leads me beside quiet waters and restores my soul.

When I get lost or mixed up along the way, he gets me back on the right path.

I live for His name's sake.

What a wonderful God we serve.

The Depth of the Riches of God's Wisdom

Oh, the depth of the riches of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable his judgments, and his paths beyond tracing out! — Romans 11:33

God's wisdom is too deep for my understanding.

His knowledge is higher than I can comprehend.

The Lord's judgments are unsearchable.

I can't begin to trace His paths.

Here's the lunar supermoon that appeared in the sky last night.

This picture is from our house.

Part of the lunar eclipse.

How majestic is Your name, O Lord!

God Is WIth Me

He guides me along the right paths for his name’s sake.
4 Even though I walk  through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil,
 for you are with me. — Psalm 23: 3-4

Several of our older friends passed away this week.

And others are recovering from falls.

Kirk took these flowers to one of our friends who is recovering with a fractured pelvis and broken ribs from her fall.

My coworker's stepsister lost her dad.

Tragedy all around us.

But God is good. 

He carries us through the dark valleys.

And that journey is part of His purpose for our lives.

I don't grow in Him unless I travel that path.

And He has much to teach me along the way.

Guide and direct me, Lord.

Prepare the Way for the Lord

 As it is written in the book of the words of Isaiah the prophet: “A voice of one calling in the wilderness,
‘Prepare the way for the Lord, make straight paths for him
.'" — Luke 3:4-5


Isaiah's words of so long ago foretold of Jesus' birth.

John told his followers that Jesus would be coming.

John was sent to prepare the way.

He knew that Jesus was the Savior that He proclaimed.

We know that Jesus is our Savior, too.

Submit to the Lord

Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight. — Proverbs 3:5-6

Trust in the Lord.

God commands us to trust Him.

To trust Him with all our heart.

It's hard not to lean on my own understanding.

God is showing me how to do that.

He is helping me to submit to Him in all my ways.

When I do, God will direct my paths.

He will make my paths straight.

The Lord Refreshes My Soul

The Lord . . . refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths for his name’s sake. — Psalm 23:2-3

God refreshes my soul when I stay in His Word.

When I start to go my own way, He brings me back.

He guides me along the right path.

For His name's sake, He leads and guides me.

He knows what's best for me and directs me in that way.

My Father, he cares for me.

God's paths are beyond anything we can imagine.

He is unsearchable.

He is our Creator and His wisdom is rich.

We are blessed.

Teach Me, Lord

Teach me to do your will, for you are my God; may your good Spirit lead me on level ground. — Psalm 143:10


It's not always easy to God's do will.

In fact, for me, it's rarely easy.

My daily prayer is for God to lead me on level ground and direct my paths.

Saturday our sweet neighbors brought me a wonderful new book that I finished reading last night.

It's called "Here's to You" and it's filled with quotes from a wide variety of people past and present.

How thoughtful and appreciated!

And they invited me to swim in their pool, which I did.

It was very refreshing on a hot day.

And it was good exercise to get me back in shape before I experience the exhaustion of radiation in a couple of weeks.

One of my favorite quotes (of many) from this book was on the page, "Here's to your spirit."

The quote is from Ashley Hodgeson, "Strength and courage aren't always measured in medals and victories, they are measured in the struggles they overcome. The strongest people aren't always the people who win, but the people who don't give up when they lose."

God is teaching me to slow down and do his will. And I am thankful.
