“… lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen. .”  Matthew 28:20

Grasping the entire message of that very strong and comforting promise from Jesus’ own lips is overwhelming.  It’s at times, difficult to digest the enormity of His prolific statement for so many reasons.  The first that comes to mind is that there isn’t one individual on this face of the earth who loves us the way He does!   His unconditional love and His compassionate characteristics are beyond explanation. No, there is no explanation other than “He loves us, so much…that He gave His only begotten Son for us.  And, His Son, Jesus Christ, came willingly to be a servant for us, and to serve us in order to defeat death, so that we could be with Him for eternity!

Wow! I know must of you reading this right now are aware of His love, and what He has sacrificed for us.  But, for those who are not aware, or who are just coming to know Him…let His words penetrate your mind for a moment.

“…lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world…”  Repeat it, meditate on these loving words, and then embrace it with every fiber of your being, and open your heart to  Him fully.  For He alone is worthy, and He alone is the most high, and He is simply put…what LOVE is all about.

From the beginning of time our Father has wanted a relationship with His children.  And He created us for His pleasure (Rev: 4:11 11 — Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.) –because He enjoys us and wants an intimate relationship with us.  But, He has always given us a choice whether to reciprocate in kind, or take off as a third of His children did in the first earth age, when Satan was cast from heaven.

When we embrace His doctrine in  all we do, and honor Him daily with praise and meditation, along with applying a hands-on practice to His ways, by following the Holy Spirits’ prompting, we are pleasing to Him, and are exhibiting a loving and open heart toward our Father, who is so worthy.

This season, the season of Christ’ coming to “live with us” is a significant piece of who we are as followers.  It is a time to share His gospel, His peace, and His love with others, as well as from within.

As we explore the basis for our existence, we should always take into consideration that it is His will that should be done, and His purpose for us as we go forward this season, and every season of our lives until we gain entry into the eternity.  But, while we’re here today, love Him…and feel joy at His promises, each and everyone of them.  He wants us to remind Him that we know of those promises, (Isaiah 43:26- Put me in remembrance: let us plead together: declare thou, that thou mayest be justified.)

Most important of all…keep honoring Him all of your might, heart, body and mind.  And, remember, “He is with you always, even until the end of this age”  Praise His name!

“Father, thank You for the promises in Your word, and for the sacrifices that you’ve made for Your children since the beginning of time. Thank You for all the miracles You’ve given us from the beginning of time, and continue to do to this very day, and thank You for Your Son, our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, who through Him we are able to share in eternity, and through Him, our Sins are blotted out.  I love You, and I serve only You,  now and always.  May those who are not aware of Your incredible ways come to know You, and love You as Your followers do, in Jesus’ name I pray, Amen.”

I, even I, am he that blotteth out thy transgressions for mine own sake, and will not remember thy sins.

Isaiah 43:25

That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

John 3:15-18 KJV

A highly productive feeling of importance associated with ones’ success or circumstances in life is usually fleeting at best.  To be productive is not a “bad thing” in fact, God wants us to produce both in terms of “work” and in terms of “fruit.” But, when we’re not in acknowledgment of GOD and the role of significance He plays in our life is when we get can get into trouble. Life on earth is fleeting.  Eternity is forever.

We are all one body in Christ, and we have the Holy Spirit within that abounds in joy and peace and wisdom, and gives us all a clear perspective of what is good and right, by conviction and unction.

Feeling joy from within is inherent in every follower of Christ.  To be one with Christ, and to experience the Sovereign Magnificence of His power is an awesome reality most of us live by.

Sadly, there are those who haven’t experienced this joyous and precious gift,  who are walking in the dark, not aware of His light or His dynamic- consuming pulsating- unconditional- and powerful  love.

The enemy wanders about seeking to destroy all of us.  Whereas, ostensibly, the LORD in His Grace and Sovereign Supernatural Magnificence, seeks to “love” and protect His children.

We have the choice, the LORD or the alternative.

Jesus said “go out and teach the gospel to all the nations in the world, shine your light so that others can see it.”

Don’t put it (your light)  under a bushel where the world cannot see it.  Instead openly display the light for those in the dark, and shine, shine, shine!

There are many ways to shine that light.

By being compassionate.

By being kind.

By smiling.

By offering encouragement,

By being an “ear.”

By being a friend.

By being a witness to God’s great glory,  sharing all of the victories you’ve received through the LORD.  Especially when going through a crisis, holding onto faith and believing in God’s promises, and recognizing He will “never leave us nor forsake us.”  We give witness to faith, when we go through the valley, holding onto to the LORD, while trusting in His will and His love.

The joy from within is the ability to rise above any occasion presented.

The joy from within is the ability to conquer the fiery darts the enemy throws our way, by the power of Jesus Christ and His glory in His name.

The joy from within is the ability to transcend the elements of this world knowing that this/earth is our temporary home, whereas eternity is forever.

The joy from within is the ability to commandeer a roomful of individuals who are non-believers, and provide seeds and pray the LORD will provide the water.

The joy from within is the ability to feel the love of the LORD 24hrs a day, 7 days a week.

And, finally the joy from within is the ability to listen to our Father, pray to our Father, and spending time with our Father, and loving our Father.

And, my brothers and sisters, just knowing that one day we will be with Him forever and ever, isn’t that joy in and of itself?

Now that is what I call joy!

Amen….

Rejoice evermore.  –  1 Thessalonians 5:16

And now my head shall be lifted up above my enemies all around me; Therefore I will offer sacrifices of joy in His tabernacle; I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to the Lord. – Psalm 27:6 (NKJV)

Clap your hands, all you nations; shout to God with cries of joy. For the Lord Most High is awesome, the great King over all the earth. He subdued nations under us, peoples under our feet. – Psalm 47:1-3

My lips will shout for joy when I sing praise to you— I whom you have delivered. – Psalm 71:23

10 Sharon shall be a fold of flocks, And the Valley of Achor a place for herds to lie down, For My people who have sought Me.

Isaiah 65:10

Achor trouble — This valley near Jericho was the consequence of trouble and sin of Achan— (Joshua 7:24 Joshua 7:26.)

Therefore, the saying of  “Valley of Achor”  more than likely became a term for that which caused trouble.

Isaiah (Isaiah 65:10) used it;  “The Valley of Achor, a place for herds to lie down in” which essentially refers to “trouble and issues of unrest” — however, it became a source of a blessing, as Hosea stated; ( Hosea 2:15)  “The Valley of Achor for a door of hope” where trouble is turned into joy, and despair into hope.

Jesus is the “door” and our “Anchor” into hope, peace, and eternity. He is our peace and hope in this turbulent world of chaos and evil principalities.

He is the anchor of our daily life, and He is the culmination of prosperity and spiritual growth each day of our life as we adhere to His gospel and walk in faith.

He is our protection.

Although there is troubling times in our world today, evil is surfacing everyday,  it is our “Anchor” Christ, our Lord of lords, and King of kings, and our Savior, that ultimately delivers us from evil and catapults us into a sublime reality which is inherently our reward of accepting Him as our Savior.

He supplies provisions in terms of our need, and offers His yoke to ease our burdens of everyday circumstances throughout our life.

When we listen to His voice, He will always lead us to “calm pastures” and allow us to be protected under His wings.

Even when we can’t understand or grasp the enormity of what is transpiring in the world today, for example, the horrific and evil act that took innocent lives in Texas while praying in church, we must hold onto our faith, and pray even harder than before.

His thoughts and ways are higher than our ways, and we won’t understand all of which happens in this world.  But, we do have a promise from our Father that we will be offered eternal rewards when we enter Paradise.

Hold onto the Anchor and know that He is with us always, no matter what.

“Dear Lord, shine Your light into this world of darkness,  lead us to the safe pastures in which You offer, and guide us each day while offering us Your perfect peace, and wisdom, and show us Your will and Your purpose for our lives  while here on earth, may the victims family find comfort in You and Your promises, and may the survivors find peace in Your word,  in Jesus’ name, Amen.”

“I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.”  John 10:9

17 Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is.

 Ephesians 5:17 ( KJV)

The Lord’s will is for our good.

He knows what we can handle, what are hearts need, and what our soul desires.

We lost our precious “fur baby” Max this past weekend.  After almost 15 years of an amazing relationship filled with pure unadulterated and unconditional love,  sheer happiness and endless adventures.

I prayed since we took him home all those years ago, that when he needed to leave this earth, that the LORD would allow him to do it naturally at home, preferably in his sleep.

After 12 weeks following a diagnosis of Kidney failure, Max basically still had an amazing quality of life. He played, was eating, and filled with a zest for living.

We enjoyed a beautiful summer together, and fun.  You’d never think he was sick, still looking so beautiful, and happy.  But, the last two weeks of his life, he slowed down considerably, and it was obvious he was not long for this world.

On October 27, we tried one more thing on the advice of our Vet, to try and flush the toxins from his system.  It proved to be futile, but one we had to do in order to have given him one last chance at life.  The Vet explained that 90% of the time, dogs can rebound for an additional 8 weeks to 6 months.  It wasn’t to be for our baby Max.  He was tired, and run down.

We took him home. We never left him at the vet, sat with him the entire time. Max was never out of our sight.

12 hours upon returning home, the morning of October 28th,  I prayed to God aloud, “LORD, if it’s your will… please, take him home with you…he’s suffered so much these past hours please take him home.  Don’t let us make the decision of taking his life, please, LORD, if it’s your will, take him now.”

Within seconds of my tearful plea,  Ron and I held him in our arms, as he took his last couple of breaths, and suddenly, he was gone at 7:15 am.  He looked like he was sleeping, so beautiful, so quiet, so peaceful.  Our baby, in our arms…went home.

We cried, yet were overjoyed that we received our miracle, thanks to the LORD, our amazing God.  He answered our prayers, according to HIS WILL and His timing.

I wanted to share this highly personal experience to be a witness to God’s miraculous and amazing grace, and His love for us, His children.

He is in control at all times.  Since the beginning of time, and right this moment…the LORD is in control.

He knows what we can handle, and for me, the thought of brining Max to be euthanized would have quite possibly, pushed me over the edge…so the LORD waited for me to come to terms with it, and when I realized it was time to bring him to be euthanized, He KNEW I couldn’t handle it.  And, to that end, He protected me, for He knows what my heart can handle.  And, HE NEVER gives us more than we can handle.  Plus, HIS WILL, is always the best for us.  No matter what…always the best for us.

His timing.

His will.

His blessings.

And, His miracles.

How amazing is our Father?

Praise His name.

All glory and honor belong to Him.

The victory is His, now and always.

“Father, thank You for Your endless love, protection. You are faithful, loyal, and loving, I adore You, I worship You, I am Yours forever and a day.  Thank You, I love You…and thank You for bringing Max into our lives, all those years ago, He was your creature whom we loved fully and completely, Thank You. All the glory and honor be yours, now and forever, in Jesus name, amen…”

There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.

1 Corinthians 10:13  (KJV)

********

15 See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise,
16 Redeeming the time, because the days are evil.
17 Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is.
18 And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit;
19 Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord;
20 Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ;

                                                   Ephesians 5:15-20 (KJV)

Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.

In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil.

It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones.

Proverbs 3:5-8 (KJV)

The fundamentals of loving God is an inward and outward process, but the feeling of love, is a gift from above.  He loves us with the gusto of a welcome breeze on a balmy night, He loves us with the strength of a powerful eagle soaring high above the earth, He loves us with the softness of a single snowflake swirling about, He loves us with the depth of an ocean, endless, ever moving, and mysterious, and He loves us, most importantly…as a “Father loves His child.”

Trusting God, and loving Him through every situation we face is one of the most intimate relationships we could and ever will have.  When we trust Him, fully and completely, even when all things suggest otherwise, we are held up by His right hand of righteousness.  When we love Him above all else, we are inherently part of His Kingdom, and assured a place and a crown for our actions here, which will follow us as we enter Heaven.

Trusting Him, and leaning not on “your own understanding” is being keenly aware of our frailties, and knowing we are merely “human” and not Sovereign as is our Master and Lord…our Father.

He has given us His promises in writing…and His voice is clearly heard to those who follow Him.  We know His voice, and we follow.  He will never leave us, nor forsake us, no matter the circumstances, or how difficult or challenging.

When someone says “NO”— GOD says “YES”

When someone says, “That’s not possible” — “With God ALL things are possible.”

When someone says, “That will never happen” –God says, “Keep your faith, and it WILL happen.”

When a situation looks dim…GOD will shine HIS LIGHT.

When an outcome seems dire…GOD will provide and lift you up.

When circumstances suffocate You.  God will give you Breath.

In other words, the message here is “TRUST… TRUST… TRUST…”  in the LORD, and He will provide, He will sustain, He will show you the way, and He will guide your paths.

Someone might be reading this message right now,  who is in a deep valley, just remember this, “He is walking with you in that valley, and He will bring you out of it. Put all of your trust in Him, and He will do the rest…”

Keep looking up for all of your answers, and know that God is there for you, no matter what.

And LOVES you more than we could possibly understand.

All the Glory and Honor and Praise are Yours and Yours alone, and you get the victory always, no matter what…

“Father, thank You for loving me and holding me as only a Father can, I trust in You and You alone, and I realize that no matter what individuals might say, that You have the final word in all accounts, I pray for those in the dark, and those in deep valleys, that they will turn their hearts to You, and accept You fully, completely and recognize You as their LORD AND SAVIOR, so that they will feel the endless love and tranquility that only You can provide, I pray for my brothers and sisters all across the world, and I pray for your light to shine away the darkness in the world, I pray these things in Jesus name, Amen.”

Psalms 118:8 –

It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man.

Psalms 112:7 –

He shall not be afraid of evil tidings: his heart is fixed, trusting in the LORD.

During my weakest moments…I am the strongest by GOD’s grace.

Eventually, no matter what…we will walk through a “valley” and become besieged by circumstances that threaten to overtake our senses, emotions, and health.  Some of our circumstances can be overwhelmingly suffocating, painful, and/or heart-wrenching.  But, through it all, we have our mighty, powerful, loving, consuming, and sovereign God with us, who will hold us up, and guide us…and provide all we need to accomplish that which we need to.

His path, and His purpose for our lives is demonstrated throughout our life, from birth, in between years, and finally, death.  And, death of the flesh body, brings eternal life in the Spirit…where we will reside with Him forever.

In life, pain is inevitable. 

Life is filled with emotions. 

Life is  continuous growth.

Life is everlasting through Christ.

It is written, that GOD will give us beauty for ashes, and joy for our mourning. It is written that GOD will never leave us, nor forsake us.

It is written that GOD will uphold us with His right hand of righteousness.

It is written that GOD will guide our paths.

It is written that GOD will go before us.

It is written that GOD loves us so much that He gave His only begotten Son.

With all of these promises, (and so many more) we can stand firm on our faith believing that eventually God will bring  beauty for  ashes,   joy for mourning, while guiding our paths as He goes before us, loving and holding us up. 

With proclamations and affirmations such as these, we as children of GOD can withstand whatever comes our way knowing He loves us and is with us.

And, most important, no matter what we’re going through, remember that GOD will never give us more than we can handle.  And no matter what, be careful to give all the glory, praise always…without ceasing in our hearts, mind and soul.

And He remains Victorious always and forever…

And, we as His children are victorious through Him…

Amen! Amen!  Amen!

But they that wait upon the Lord
shall renew their strength;
they shall mount up with wings as eagles;
they shall run, and not be weary;
and they shall walk, and not faint.
Isaiah 40:31  KJV

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ!  According to his great mercy, he has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading, kept in heaven for you, who by God’s power are being guarded through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.  In this you rejoice, though now for a little while, if necessary, you have been grieved by various trials, so that the tested genuineness of your faith–more precious than gold that perishes though it is tested by fire–may be found to result in praise and glory and honour at the revelation of Jesus Christ.” 

1 Peter 1:3-7

The Spirit man in all of us is a birthing process that continues to grow each day as we exercise the need and desire to “know Him” and long to please Him.

When the “inner man” our Lord and Savior’s Spirit that dwells within, longs to grow, we begin the long arduous process of walking in the light, stepping away from the darkness, and garnering the strength to do so, which is through Christ.

Being a beacon of light in the hands of our Father is essentially the top priority in which I exist.  And, most of those who are faith-driven feel the same way.

As we meditate and look to the LORD for all the answers, and look to Him for strength in tough times, and in good times in order to minister to those who need uplifting, we continuously grow in spirit.  Each day the word brings us another way to love Him, a deeper understanding.  A birthing of faith grows more each day.  The word is pregnant, it grows and grows.

The LORD is standing by for us.  We need Him to maneuver and spiral through the paths set before us.  He is there to guide us and comfort us as we become more intimate with Him.

The process of which is rewarding and peaceful, which excels a sense of purpose to our lives.  His will be done…not ours.  His plan, not ours.  His purpose for us…not ours.

Do you sense and understand the phenomenal aspirations of those walking in the light?

Can you see beyond the darkness of an individual as we try to reach them on a level of spirituality, which only can be enhanced and brought to fruition by the LORD Himself?

There are many yearning and feeling an urgency of wishing to submit and surrender to the LORD.  He is drawing them and wooing the hearts of those that burn with a desire to become like Him…and to do His will.

Submit, surrender…speak from your heart.  Walk in the light and follow His will…help those in the dark, with Jesus’ power…and be transformed along the way.

Your inner man is longing to grow.

Feed Him (your spirit) daily…and let Him grow in truth, spirit and love…Amen!

“You have not chosen Me, but I have chosen you and ordained you that you should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain; that whatever you shall ask of the Father in My name, He may give it to you.”   John 15:16

And a certain woman, which had an issue of blood twelve years, And had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse, When she had heard of Jesus, came in the press behind, and touched his garment. For she said, If I may touch but his clothes, I shall be whole.

 (Mark 5:25-28 Luke 8:43-48 Matthew 9:20-22 )  

The woman with the issue of blood,  so clearly defines, and demonstrates,  how to obtain the healing power of God, by the grace of Jesus Christ, through faith that produces wholeness.

Faith is powerful by way of Jesus, and all that have great faith, without any doubt at all, deep in their hearts, will experience the Sovereign power in Jesus Christ’ name.

Trusting in the LORD, and allowing ourselves to surrender to His will, and adhering to His Word, which in essence is His voice…makes us “whole.”

TRUST— The ability to establish a full accord of yielding and acknowledging that CHRIST exists, and that by believing…we will survive and maintain the cord of LIFE, which abides in Christ, our Vine.

The woman with the issue of blood went looking for Jesus. She pressed through and overcame obstacles.  She pressed through the crowd. She wouldn’t take no for an answer. She fought the good fight of faith. She kept her focus on Jesus. She demonstrated her faith, trust and confidence in Jesus by her determination. And so, she was healed…after many years…made whole.  

FAITH-  Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. (Hebrews 11:1) For we walk by Faith not by sight…(2 Corinthians 5:7)

The individuals in the Bible are there for us to understand and learn from the inspired Word by the LORD.  This woman with the blood issue, went searching and looking for Jesus. She knew if she found Him, she had only to “touch His hem” and she would be made whole.  

She didn’t sit around saying, “woe is me” nor did she wait for Jesus to find her.

No. She went in search of Him.  

She was trying to seek His face, with all of her heart.

 She went to Him with all of her heart, she believed…she trusted, and she was made whole.

Faith, Trust and the LORD, go hand-in-hand.

The heart is love.  Love is the heart.  And, God is the heart of Love.  

Trust Him, Seek Him, Love Him…and have faith that you will be made whole.

Listen to His voice through the Word.  And Keep believing.  He is real, and He loves us as no other can or ever will.

Amen.

Hebrews 4:12 States that “the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.”

While ministering to a 91 year old woman my heart ached so much so due to the awful state of mind she is in.  Emotionally, and mentally she is drowning in a sea of depression and anxiety.  She is so bad she could barely grasp or comprehend that which I was saying.

Clearly, she was in turmoil and angst that defied any lifeline that was being cast her way.  I tried so many things as I had in the past with her, which worked, i.e.; “Scripture passages, praying over her, building her up in the light of love of the LORD”  nothing touched her this time.  It was a sad thing to hear and my heart ached for her heart that was filled with pain.

I look to the LORD for all things, and ask for His wisdom and guidance in everything I do, so I wait upon Him to do His will.  There isn’t anything I could do at this point, nor prior because He is in control, but at least prior to this point she was responsive overall.

So now, I realize something I’ve said so many times before concerning faith and love of God.  When someone of faith tries to connect to someone who is down and miserable, it truly hurts.  And, all I could think is “imagine how much God must ache to see His children in pain if I’m having difficulty seeing and hearing this beautiful lady swimming in a sea of despair.

I will continue to check in on her and pray about what I could do at this point in service to the LORD…and I trust He will guide me as He always does.

So..I came away with this today in meditating about this woman’s circumstances, which I will not go into at this time, that a heart of love will ache for a heart that’s hurting.  But, during the hurting, God is watching all the while, caressing us with His grace and His love.

What ever happens to this woman, will be up to the LORD.  But until such time, I will continue to build up this lady, and encourage her, and pray that the light will shine in through the dark tunnel she is in.  I trust in God and know He already is working on a plan, and it will be for the good of this sweet 91 year old lady.

Until then…I will wait upon God, and trust in Him fully.  And, as always…to God be the Glory and the Victory, no matter what.

Amen.

 Proverbs 3:5-8

King James Version

⁵ Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.

⁶ In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

⁷ Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the Lord, and depart from evil.

⁸ It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones.

Isaiah 41:10

‘Do not fear, for I am with you; Do not anxiously look about you, for I am your God I will strengthen you, surely I will help you, Surely I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.’

God clearly identifies His role as “protector” in so many places throughout His holy Bible.  He tells us to have no fear, and be of good courage because “I go before you” and that “My right hand of righteousness will hold you up.”

This is two examples of His promises for His children, that means “us.”

When we place ourselves in His mighty capable and loving hands, therein lies our “sanctuary” and our inner peace.  It’s like lying down in a bed of comfort and joy.  It’s a complete and utter surrender of acceptance in all aspects of our life.

Speaking for myself, the more time I spend with my Father the better I feel, and my desire and intimacy for Him grows exponentially with each session I “chat” with Him.

The bonds and ties to the Father are inexplicably undeniably real when one “hears” His voice, and adheres to His will.

It’s self assuring and almost “jarring” realizing the promises of our Father.  To understand and embrace those promises is a life filled with confidence and a life filled with light.

To understand that He will never let us down is a dream tantamount to our existence initiated by our Creator…our very own Father of lights.

The aspirations of dreams merely exist in our minds, but the fruition of those dreams are gifts from our Father.

He is the One and only who can bring us to see the “way” and show us “the way” all the days of our life.

When we graft onto the Vine we are promised a self satisfying and nourishing life filled with growth and protection all the days of our life.

Now, that’s not to say there won’t be “storms” along the way, but the rainbow always comes out at the end of the darkest storm.

The rainbow, another promise from our Father.

His covenant and His heart, extended to us, over and over again.

How amazing is that?

“Father God thank You for Your love, Your Word, and Your Promises, all of which are given freely to us, Your children, thank You for the light, in Jesus’ name, Amen.”
