Yesterday we attended a wedding ceremony conducted in Spanish

Two weekends ago we attended a wedding ceremony conducted in Hebrew

We didn’t understand either language but the love and commitment we witnessed knew no language barrier.

Congratulations to our dear Jewish friends Mel and Lucy!

Congratulations to our dear Spanish friends Edgar and Martha!

Blooming for Him in the Garden of the World.

Dear Father,

As I sit in silent contemplation and admire the beauty of the work of your hands, hear the birds sing your praises, feel the heat of the sun, and be covered by a cloudless sky, I am amazed, for surely these all declare your majesty and awesomeness!

As I reflect, I have to question who am I that you would be concerned with me? I will never fathom Your love and mercy and yet I believe it with all my heart.

Oh, Papa, may my life declare your majesty and grace as much as the creation of nature echoes your awesomeness!

Dear Child,

Creation just naturally fulfills the purpose it was created for. It doesn’t strive to do anything else! It never doubts My sovereignty but without effort awaits each season, knowing each season has a unique purpose.

But I cannot commune with nature, I cannot fellowship with nature. Only man was created in My image, to fellowship and commune with Me!

All of this beauty was created for man! And man was created to relate to Me!

As you commune and fellowship with Me, your life is declaring My majesty and mercy, for by faith in My mercy, you are trusting My sovereignty and majesty! You are a vessel to display that majesty and mercy, but you must allow Me to fill the vessel daily or you will run dry

                                                             Thus saith Papa

Psa 8:3 -4 When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained; What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him? 

Jer 18:2-4 Arise, and go down to the potter’s house, and there I will cause thee to hear my words. Then I went down to the potter’s house, and, behold, he wrought a work on the wheels. And the vessel that he made of clay was marred in the hand of the potter: so he made it again another vessel, as seemed good to the potter to make it.

Just as creation brings glory to His name by simply fulfilling its purpose, even so, as we fellowship with Him we are fulfilling the reason He created us in His image; that we might have the capacity to commune with Him.

As we make that journey each day to the Potter’s house, we are yielding to His sovereign Hand, as He molds and shapes us into a vessel for His glory and honor to display His faithfulness and mercy on the earth.

CHALLENGE: Are you making that journey each day to the Potter’s house, and spending time on the wheel that He may mold your life that it might display, not only the signature of the Creator, but also His majesty and grace.

While out strolling down Main Street in Franklin, a suburb of Nashville, with my daughter, before starting on our long drive back home to Pennsylvania, we entered the Philanthropy fashion store to be approached by a young lady, Samantha Rasband, who after a short conversation felt she should pray for me. What a blessing for the Lord to use a stranger to pray and encourage you! Thank you, Samantha, for being so obedient. The store is most unusual for as we were leaving we saw a “Prayer Wall” where customers can can write their prayer requests down and hang them on the wall!

Be ready for God to reach you somehow, somewhere through someone today!

We Are All A Unique Creation

My beautiful picture

Happy birthday to my beautiful twin daughters who will be 50 years young on Sunday. As you can see from the photo they are like peas in a pod! Even as their mother it is almost impossible for me to guess who is who? But to their heavenly Father who formed them in my womb they were not only wonderfully made but also uniquely made.

The finger print of God on their lives is as unique as their individual finger prints. Praising God for blessing the fruit of my womb and His calling on each of their lives as they serve Him not as one entity but in their separate individual personalities.

CHALLENGE: You may look exactly like someone else but you were not created to be just like someone else. You have a unique purpose!

Age is Only a State of Mind

Here comes the beautiful bride – that we all would look this glowing at 80 years young!
