You will be like a well-watered garden, like a spring whose waters never fail. — Isaiah 58:11
Like springs in the desert, God continually nourishes us.
He satisfies our thirst.
So we can be like a well-watered garden, producing good fruit.
A joy for others to see.
And his living water never dries up.
He is like a spring whose waters never fail.
The Lord will guide you always; he will satisfy your needs in a sun-scorched land and will strengthen your frame. — Isaiah 58:11
He will satisfy our needs.
And He will strengthen us.
When our frame feels feeble and small and frail,
Then you will call, and the Lord will answer; you will cry for help, and he will say: Here am I. — Isaiah 58:9
The Lord is near.
When I cry for help, God will hear me.
And He will respond, "Here am I."
When I'm not sure what to do, God will lead me.
He has a plan for my life.
He guides and directs my path.
He knows what's best for me.
Then your righteousness will go before you, and the glory of the Lord will be your rear guard. — Isaiah 58:8
His glory fills the whole earth.
And He is our rear guard.
Without Him we are nothing.
And we are grateful that He cares for us.
Then your light will break forth like the dawn, and your healing will quickly appear. — Isaiah 58:8
Today she did a PowerPoint presentation for some additional people there.
And then they offered her the job!
She will be an Enrollment Counselor for Graduate and Professional Studies.
She picks up her computer tomorrow and starts her training on Monday.
For now she will only go to the campus once or twice a week.
She will work remotely the rest of the time.
Best of all, she will be working at the Mission Valley campus, just 15 minutes from our house!
Her hard work has paid off.
To God be the glory.
Shout it aloud, do not hold back. Raise your voice like a trumpet. — Isaiah 58:1
Kirk and I served communion.
We sang together — Abby, Kirk and me.
We prayed and heard God's Word.
We worshiped with our household of faith.
With other believers and seekers of the faith.
We were blessed.
Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? Yet not one of them is forgotten by God. Indeed, the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Don’t be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows. — Luke 12:6-7
We were studying Romans 7.
It was a great discussion with lots of great perspectives.
God cares about us.
There is no need to be afraid.
I am worth more than many sparrows.
The hairs on my head are numbered.
For a while I had no hairs on my head while I was going through chemo.
Now I have my hair back, and the hairs on my head are very precious.
