Do you realize that you always have and always will need to be sheltered?
Do you realize that you always have and always will need a shepherd?
God never intended us to be independent of Him ever!!
Look what happens in heaven…
Therefore they are before the throne of God, and serve Him day and night in His temple;
and He who sits on the throne will shelter them with His presence. They shall hunger no more, neither thirst anymore; the sun shall not strike them, nor any scorching heat. For the Lamb in the midst of the throne will be their shepherd, and He will guide them to springs of living water, and God will wipe away every tear from their eyes."
Rev 7:15-17

The Blog Trail

I would like to share this Spurgeon quote that I saw on Noel Piper’s Blog, which actually originated from her niece Sunny’s blog…

“To tell about Jesus without the cross is to betray Him with a kiss.”

This then led me to the Word of God…

Notice what Paul writes in I Corinthians 2…

“For I have determined to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ, and Him crucified.”
I Corinthians 2:2

March 22

Today is a day of memorial for us.  It has been three years.  Kevin wrote me this last year.

March 22,

Today is a day of sorrow laced with joy
We lost a baby in the womb we thought might be a boy
But now a girl to our surprise fills us up deep inside
She is the apple of our eye, little Mady sugar pie
The one gone is so missed
The one who is here will be so kissed
May God continue to give us strength and fill us with His grace
Knowing that someday we will see our beloved face to face
When we enter home, our dwelling place


 I Love you Mary King.

Thanks for Sharing

Yesterday my dear friend Cassidy asked for my bible, snagged it off the counter, eagerly turned the pages, and hit me with this...

"For My hand made all things, thus all these things came into being," declares the Lord. 
 "But to this one I will look,
to him who is humble and contrite of spirit, and who trembles at My word."
Isaiah 66:2

How can I add to that?  Thanks for sharing Cassidy.  I just can't get over this verse!  I've been meditating on it ever since.
