Greetings sisters!
Another day is here that God made! I hope you're doing well:) It's time for me to share a bit more edifying with you! It's a blessing to be able to and it's good to rejoice in all our blessings! God's mercies are over us again and all His creations!
The LORD is gracious, and full of compassion; slow to anger, and of great mercy.
The LORD is good to all: and his tender mercies are over all his works.
All thy works shall praise thee, O LORD; and thy saints shall bless thee.
Psalm 145:8-10
Let us rejoice in His great goodness!
I will mention the lovingkindnesses of the LORD, and the praises of the LORD, according to all that the LORD hath bestowed on us, and the great goodness toward the house of Israel, which he hath bestowed on them according to his mercies, and according to the multitude of his lovingkindnesses.
Isaiah 63:7
You really see the patience and long suffering of the Lord as the earth remains day by day.
And the LORD passed by before him, and proclaimed, The LORD, The LORD God, merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abundant in goodness and truth,Exodus 34:6
He is slow to anger...
And rend your heart, and not your garments, and turn unto the LORD your God: for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repenteth him of the evil.Joel 2:13
And we are to be also...
A wrathful man stirreth up strife: but he that is slow to anger appeaseth strife.Proverbs 15:18
Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath:
For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.
James 1:19-20
Reminds me also how 1 Corinthians 13 says love is not easily provoked. Just all sorts of things to ponder from His Word! And learn of our God and follow His good ways!
So I am back at the children's for now (thankful for safe travels), and I never know how long I will be here! But I already had and will have a lot of dishes to wash and laundry and baby minding and other cleaning and housework and cooking and other bits and pieces I'm sure! My sisters are also keeping busy in whatever the Lord has, aren't you sisters!
Just was sharing a bit from my travels. It's very dry already...but still His creations which are good.
Was beautiful flowers at the bus break stop...
Sharing them with my sisters! God made them!
I was listening to scripture earlier and pondering how Paul tells us God was giving us a greater lesson and meaning through an old law.
For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen?
Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope.
1 Corinthians 9:9-10
Just thought it was interesting to ponder. And surely it would be the case in more than just that. There's just so much depth and meaning in His Word isn't there!
For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind.Isaiah 65:17
Saw that scripture and pondering how this old world will not be remembered nor come into mind! Well, I'd be glad for that wouldn't you, at least for all the bad parts. Lots to look forward to and not back to isn't there! So may we endure to the end faithfully and stedfastly.
Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness. Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless.2 Peter 3:13-14
And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.Revelation 21:1
Cheering my sisters on to do just that. Let us continue to be godly holy women with meek and quiet spirits and going about our good works patiently and doing them as unto the Lord! Strive on sisters!
Love in Christ,
Sister Chayil
