John 11

A seeking heart HE never denies....I believe that and saying it to a hungry heart this morning....just WOW.

And a seeking heart takes faith and faith is a gift from God....hmmm

Hebrews 11:6 So, you see, it is impossible to please God without faith. Anyone who wants to come to him must believe that there is a God and that he rewards those who sincerely seek him.

Matthew 7: 8 For everyone who asks, receives. Everyone who seeks, finds. And the door is opened to everyone who knocks.

Lamentations 3:25 The LORD is wonderfully good to those who wait for him and seek him.

Just the first things on my mind this morning. Well that and figuring out how to give away the journey.....how to help people come to know You..... pinching myself HARD as I watch this.

The disciples witnessing so many miracles always seemed to need more.....vs. 35 Jesus wept.....

And then I read her....
Anyway, my friend here wants to have Sunday dinner (although we had it at supper time) and I think that's fantabulous. Back in NC, as an adult, a group of about 10 of us decided to have Sunday dinner once a month. A few people would bring instruments and we would sit around after the meal and sing and talk and have a good time. I miss that.

She doesn't believe in God, so please don't go and bother her....but what she wrote here touched me....the simplicity of it...the lack of ulterior motives....the beauty of it...why the heck am I crying....???

Hi Sis!

Thanks so much for all the encouragement you have given me over the past year. One weird year.

You managed to get to my new blog before I put the counter on it.

So... just so you know... you were the first visitor there, first commenter there.
