“You make springs gush forth in the valleys; they flow between the hills; they give drink to every beast of the field; the wild donkeys quench their thirst. Beside them the birds of the heavens dwell; they sing among the branches. From your lofty abode you water the mountains; the earth is satisfied with the fruit of your work.” Ps. 104‬:‭10‬-‭13‬ ‭ESV‬‬

Glory be to Him alone who creates and sustains.

“My mouth will tell of your righteous acts, of your deeds of salvation all the day, for their number is past my knowledge.” Psalm‬ ‭71‬:‭15‬ ‭ESV‬‬

“Fear not, therefore; you are of more value than many sparrows.” Matt. 10‬:‭31‬ ‭ESV‬‬

“A man does not call a line crooked unless he has some idea of a straight line.” C. S. Lewis

There is much counterfeit around us each day. I’ve found that it helps me to spot the crooked by abiding deep and wide each morning in Scripture. God uses His word to train my heart and mind and helps me remain on the narrow path.

“Now may our God and Father himself, and our Lord Jesus, direct our way to you, and may the Lord make you increase and abound in love for one another and for all, as we do for you, so that he may establish your hearts blameless in holiness before our God and Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus with all his saints.” 1 Thes.‬ ‭3‬:‭11‬-‭13‬ ‭ESV‬‬

It is wondrous, to contemplate the steadfast love of God.

He never wavers, even when we can’t see or feel it. He is with us as his love is steadfast.

No matter the circumstances, remember to rejoice…
