Moving... It is time to move on from this sight and begin afresh in a new place. It all goes with a new husband a new house and a new life. Ya know.. God has been Good to me. He fed me manna in the wilderness and brought me to a new land. I have so much to be grateful for.. and I am. I needed forgiveness... and now I also need to forgive. I see that as the one thing I can do to show the Lord my gratitude. It's cool.. to be able to really give God a gift. Our works are lame... but surrender of the heart is of great value to the Lord. I love this verse: "And seek the peace of the city where I have caused you to be carried away captive, and pray to the Lord for it, for in it's peace you will have peace." Jeremiah 29:7 As I read the commentary Brother Ken sent me (THANKS KENNY!) by Derek Kidner on Jeremiah it made me realize something more. God was asking Israel to embrace thier land of exile and pray and support and help the very people who sent them into exile. By doing so.. they would have peace. Israel didn't know that in Babylon Kings would find the Lord and great visions would be given an Israelite that would speak through the ages. They only knew to accept this new land and care for it and pray for thier enemy. Well anyhow... you may find me here now: http://joniluvschachee101.blogspot.com/ with my computer savvy-ness-less (word) it could be a while before I am profound at posting to the new sight. But I will get there eventually! C U! |
