Now it Springs Up...{Thoughtful on a Tuesday}

I am reminded of a verse as I look forward to Spring.

 “Forget the former things;
   do not dwell on the past.
 See, I am doing a new thing!
   Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?

Isaiah 43:18-20

This verse has been on my heart...

God is speaking to me through it,

...challenging

...changing

...growing

It's one of those verses that needs to "marinate."

He's not done yet with this verse.

Just like with the changing of seasons,

the spring cleaning...

the clearing out of the garden beds...

God loves us too much to leave us where we are.

God loves me too much to leave me where I am.

The question is,

""Will I let the Master Gardner do His Work?..."

What is God saying to you today?

In the mean time,
How about a fun Spring{y} Craft?

Have a Lovely Day,

In the Stillness...{Thoughtful on a Tuesday}

I hope you are having a beautiful day!

I have so much I want to do, create, and share with you, but I've been fighting some gall bladder and kidney issues. {Not major serious, but enough to make it hard.}

Would you mind joining me in prayer for healing and provision to take care of what needs to be?

Thank you so very much...

I previously wrote this post a few weeks ago during a snow storm. It was in the stillness and quiet that God spoke so loudly. 

We don't have any snow right now, but it is...

cold enough for coats in the morning.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The wind howls, branches scrape the side of the house. Blowing, icy, snow whips through the air threatening to take the breath of everything it touches. Moonlight bounces off the ice covered trees. Bitter cold continually tries to creep in.

Power out.
Stillness.
Quiet.
Not a sound.

Flames of candles dance across the room in splashes of light.

Safe.
Warm.
At peace...

...in the shelter of my home, in the warmth of my comforter.

God Speaks...

In the stillness, the quiet, He is there.
In the cold, the wind, He prevails.

God Speaks...

...of His peace in the storm.
...of light shined in the darkness.
...of love and warmth in the cold.

You can not escape it...
...His Presence.

You can not deny it...
...His Love.

In the stillness He is there.

"Be still and know that I am God."
{Psalm 46:10}

It is in the power of the storm...
...God speaks loudest in a quiet voice.

Whatever your storm may be.
Whatever "cold" threatens to creep in.

HE. IS. THERE.
...shinning light for you to see.

How does God speak to you?

Lovely Wishes for a Beautiful Day!
