No More Running
https://chellebcom2.wordpress.com/2024/05/12/todays-prompt-running/
What a relief, to stop running
Leave all the dead ends behind
Quit looking for Light in darkness…
“Be still, and know that I am God”*
Some people say He waits
For us to finally find Him…
I know He chases after those
He’s set apart, sealed as His own–
Stronger than movie super-heroes
He doesn’t get tired, can run
Down miles as long as it takes
To ambush (with love), wash us
Clean, cover our every mistake
He never breaks a sweat
Nor needs to catch His breath–
When I turned around to see just
Whose footsteps followed close
He scooped me up, held me
Hard against His heart…
No more running
I’m resting in Him
*Psalm 46:10

Prise open my heart
(Sometimes it gets stuck)
Lord, prime me to hear Your voice

No-Mercy Monday: Notorious
https://thedailyspur.wordpress.com/2024/05/11/notorious/
Notorious men
And women take the limelight–
Why do we let them?
In Bible Days God caused the
Wicked to be forgotten
©Lenna Boat, 2024
These 2 verses put it bluntly!
Proverbs 10:7
The memory of the just is blessed: but the name of the wicked shall rot.
King James Bible Job 24:20
The womb shall forget him; the worm shall feed sweetly on him; he shall be no more remembered; and wickedness shall be broken as a tree.
All Means ALL
https://chellebcom2.wordpress.com/2024/05/11/todays-prompt-all-2/ “ALL”
“And God is able to bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work.” 2 Corinth 9:8, NIV
Phil 4:19, ESV, “And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.”
I am beyond glad and grateful that God’s Word says “ALL” quite often! All means ALL–not “a little”, “a few”, or “some”. When it comes to how He blesses and supplies for our needs, HE SAYS “ALL”!
Can I get a “Hallelujah”?! AMEN!!

Sunday Blessing
Aaron’s Benediction, Deut 6:22-27, AMP
Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, “Speak to Aaron and his sons, saying, ‘This is the way you shall bless the Israelites. Say to them:
The LORD bless you, and keep you [protect you, sustain you, and guard you];
The LORD make His face shine upon you [with favor],
And be gracious to you [surrounding you with lovingkindness];
The LORD lift up His countenance (face) upon you [with divine approval],
And give you peace [a tranquil heart and life].’
So Aaron and his sons shall put My name upon the children of Israel, and I will bless them.”

Tired Old Sheep
https://thedailyspur.wordpress.com/2024/05/08/carry-3/
It’s nice to be safe
Among the Good Shepherd’s flock
This old sheep gets tired
And He’s never once refused
To carry me the next mile
