Mark 10:19
Therefore what God has joined together , let no one separate.
Afternoon Insight,
I love this scripture. I realized I didn't share my Anniversary thoughts. This is what I wrote, and shared with my family and a few friends. I wrote.
Morning Celebration:
This morning is dear to me, so is every morning. Just being grateful for each and everyday. I ponder on his promises for those that truly love him, this is great. I remember living in such agony , pain, and confusion, not knowing which way to turn. I was full of hope, but yet so broken, I knew that the Lord was there for me, and patience was his desire for me, I knew that I had to fully trust in him alone, see nothing else was fulfilling my appetite. As I ponder and wait, I tossed and turned, not knowing when my break through would come. I realized ,I had to give it to the Lord. My hands became unchangeable. I no longer wanted , what the world wanted. I didn't feel lonely because Jesus was right by my side.
Before my King came to me, yes, he found me. Literally two decades ago. But, this is it, before he came my first King came. I found the one that loved me long ago. The one that was patient long before I knew what patience was. How could I not trust that Deliverance was on the way, and this gave me "Hope".
So, today, I say Thank you, Jesus for loving me like the Church. Thank you for sending me my King that loves me like you, the Church.The one that knew my failures and downfalls, the one that has help me grow and heal, truly the one that has sacrificed his life for me, just like the "Church". As I celebrate my "Anniversary"!
I say job well done. I am grateful. It's a beautiful day! That it is. I am Thankful. Lord this feel like the Garden. In your presence.
