Respite For the Weary
As I was thinking/praying this morning about what to submit for my bi-monthly post, the thought "Picture Scripture" came to my mind. Picture Scripture is the name of a journal that I had created a year ago for my sons, Bink and Davis, as they went off to their respective colleges.
Interestingly (providentially?!), only MINUTES after I asked the Lord to confirm this idea as the appropriate post to submit this morning, I got an out-of-the-blue-text from my son Davis that simply said:"Reading my picture scripture"; and then he added this page of his journal, that I will now share with you:
I texted Davis back, thanking him for his part in this post, and then added these words, which again, are now for you: "God loves to work through His children! Be His confident light today." Praying that each one of us will understand, believe, and then live out the passage above (II Cor. 5:14-20). Indeed, may the love of Christ control us!
*If you enjoyed this "picture concordance", more of the same can be found on my website under the titles Picture Scripture III and Picture Scripture II.
Jesus answered, "If anyone loves me, he will keep my word, and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him. John 14:23
Dear Lord,
Your earnest desire to abide in us proves your steadfast love. Come in, Lord Jesus! Then, may your strong Spirit help us to obey your commands in thought, word and deed. For in doing so, we become our best selves. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
