Good morning, Dear Friends and Prayer Partners! This is the clear day that the Lord has made and we will rejoice and be glad in it! I hope some of you were up early enough the see the lunar eclipse. When I stepped outside at 5 AM the moon was shining brightly and would have been full except for the top, which had already been shadowed. Since it moved so fast, by 6 it was not visible in the Western sky.
God is Awesome!
Yesterday I think I spied Mama gator back at the side of her nest, but only because it looked like her eye. The time for hatching is growing close.
I was amused by the growing croaking of the frogs as I walked, The boardwalk was wet because of rain the night before and I guess they were hoping for more. The chorus had sopranos, tenors, bass croakers, and a few altos. I looked, but I couldn't see any of them.
I saw the chocolate bunny once again, munching beside the road. He is very pretty.
From the book Quiet Moments with God for Teachers:
Do you ever wonder if God has lost your address? Perhaps he has lost track of you or even forgotten you? God's Word answers that thought with a resounding, "Not so!"
Jesus taught his followers, " Are not two little sparrows sold for a penny? And yet not one of them will fall to the ground without your Father's leave [consent] and notice...fear not,then; you are of more value than many sparrows."( Matthew 10:29-11 AMP.)
The psalmist also recognized God's thorough and intimate knowledge of us. Read these words from Psalm 139 and be encouraged.
O Lord, you have examined my heart and know everything about me. You know when I sit or stand. When far away you know my every thought. You chart the path ahead of me, and tell me where to stop and rest. Every moment, you know where I am. You know what I am going to say before I even say it. You both precede and follow me, and place your hand of blessing on my head.
This is too glorious, too wonderful...I can never be lost to your Spirit! I can never get away from my God!...
You saw me before I was born and scheduled each day of my life before I began to breathe. Every day was recorded in your Book!
How precious it is, Lord, to realize that you are thinking about me constantly! I can't even count how many times a day your thoughts turn towards me. And when I waken in the morning, you are still thinking of me!
Psalm 139:1-7, 16-18 TLB
"Even the very hairs of your head are all numbered."
Matthew 10:30 Amp.
I always give thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers with thanksgiving, joy and love!
Love and hugs,
Amaryllis
