Words

The smallest word can be soo powerful! So beautiful! Soo releasing!

As i reflect on some words, so much life springs from them. As i wrote last week on Psalm 46:10 each word in that verse reveals and says soo much- incredible.

I looked up the meaning of a few words I'm loving at the moment...

Apart from this last one- I think these words speak for themselves in what God is speaking to me at the moment!

My Abba! In you, through you and for you I breathe and live each day!
Everything I possibly try to write falls soo short in bringing you the glory in which you soo clearly deserve! But I am learning to devote each day, each opportunity, each moment to make it count and bring you a smile! I have soo much to learn...but I am willing! Adjust and position my heart closer and closer ...and even closer to you. Cause God if you are not in it- then I want none of it!  Abba you hear my cry- you are my cry!

I love you in a capacity I never knew I could!
