Verse of the Week
I will cry unto God most high; unto God that performeth all things for me. Psalm 57:2
Thought for the Week
Did you get that! God performs ALL things for us! No person on this earth can do that. Not our spouses or closest friends. Not our parents or our children. He performs it all.
So, why do we cry out to everyone else to perform all things for us? Why do we bicker and complain to everyone who will listen when things dont go our way?
And, who do we cry to? Who can do what needs to be done in us? Who can help us? ONLY the God that performs all things for us!
What we do of ourselves may only become wood, hay and stubble, but what He performs in us remains through the fires of life and shows forth the jewels of His glory.
Cry to God; He will hear and He will do what He will do. Let Him perform all things for you this week and look for the glory of God to be revealed. ~dlw
Frail children of dust, and feeble as frail,
In Thee do we trust, nor find Thee to fail;
Thy mercies how tender, how firm to the end,
Our Maker, Defender, Redeemer, and Friend.
From O Worship the King by Robert Grant 1779-1838

We are once again learning the same things, Deb. I just keep being drawn back to Him after striving and failing. He truly is the Master and sometimes we all try to take on that role.....or "forget" how available (omnipresent!) He is for us!
I recently wrote an entry about how His creativity can be found in us.....like Father, like son and daughter.
It is always such a blessing to read your thoughts, because I see how they just come from a heart which Loves the master.......
your friend,
