Word Filled Wednesday

wfw-2008sm

The eyes of all look expectantly to You,
         And You give them their food in due season.
You open Your hand
         And satisfy the desire of every living thing.  Psalms 145:15

100_3685 copy

I love the promise of this verse that as we gaze expectantly to the Lord, in His hand, He alone holds the power to satisfy our every desire.  This is not a “give me” type of attitude, but a realization that He holds all that we need and all we need to do is to seek Him.  For He is the All Sufficient One.

    We need to keep those eyes of ours "fixed." It's the distractions of life that cause us to turn away...

    Help me Lord to keep my eyes upon YOU...

    wonderful image!

    peace,

    Nice photo and scripture. I live on an island and so love the beach! Tonight my heart is heavy in prayer about the oil disaster in the Gulf of Mexico. The first oil washed ashore today. I pray that the Lord will have mercy.

    For "doers" like me, learning to be receptive has been a challenge. But God wants to fulfill our needs. A wonderful verse!

Our family is in the midst of little league soccer season. My youngest son is playing and his enthusiasm is contagious. He is pretty good at the sport, but what makes it so great is that he loves it! He counts the days until the next game or practice. He loves his coach and teammates. He has moved up an age level this year and the players are working more like team, passing to each other and watching out for each other during play. During the last game, my son scored two goals, they were the only goals of the game. In today's game the team scored eight goals. My son came up afterwards to me and said, "I didn't score today, but I blocked". What a powerful truth those words can hold. In life, sometimes we score, sometimes we block. Sometimes we do great things, we excel, we achieve, we meet our goal - we score! There are also times we see the needs of others, sometimes they are sad or hurting, we block their hits. We look out for them so they can score. We

Relationships and Redemption

In every friendship or relationship, there is a common hope that they will grow and flourish. There is something inside of us that longs for a 'happy every after' story. We dream about it and work to make that happen. But in reality, relationships are a challenge. The bridging of values, lifestyles, interests and sacrificing for another are simply hard things to do! No matter how much we dream of the perfect fit, some relationships will not endure the stress.  When differences appear and tensions arise, prayer can change situations, attitudes and ourselves. For the Christian, we know God can transform, change, heal. We cannot change others, but prayer opens us the door for God to step in and answer. God desires transformation, but does not demand it. The gift of free will allows us to choose to say Yes or No to Him.  Romans 12:18 says, “If possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all.” Take notice of the first two words: “If possible …” This implies that some
