i have been down in the dumps lately.
i shared a little with my sister this weekend
and before i left to come home,
she handed me a stack of verses.
As i read through them, i was reminded of how God uses people in our lives as vessels of His love.
My sister is and has always been a tangible example of how God loves me.
He used her again this weekend to speak into my life, to move in my heart.
how easily i forget the power of my heavenly father's words.
They are life-giving.
I am clinging to this verse today.
Because of the Lord's great love we are not consumed, for His compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness. I will say to myself, "the Lord is my portion, therefore I will wait for Him! The Lord is good to those whose hope is in Him, to the one who seeks Him."
Lamentations 3:22-25
Love this! Found Deut. 10:21 in my quite time for Bible Study
