An Island in the Pacific - Romans 8:38-39
Greetings dear and precious sisters-in-Christ,
I live on an island located in the Pacific Ocean as far west as a person can be. To those whom I am writing to this morning - some of you live on the same island, others who used to live here have moved to a different mass of land and others I have met through different ways. And yet as I sit at my keyboard this morning God brings you to my mind as He is always faithfully does on Wednesday mornings. Oh, how Great and Sovereign is our Lord that He places each one of us in just the right place at just the right time that as the tapestry of life weaves itself together in the most intricate pattern He alone knows the finished design.
It reminds me of a jigsaw puzzle that my sister-in-law gave to my husband. The picture on the box is not the way it will look. The instructions are hidden in a story that is included in the box. You read the story and then you start to place the pieces (or should I say try, try, try) together.
For those of you who are indeed wondering or possibly doubting that you are where you are supposed to be I pray for TRUST. For those who are trying to fit the pieces all together I pray for PERSEVERANCE. For those who have given up I pray for a renewed PASSION.
Abba Father,
We gather together as your dear and precious children and worship You. Oh, Lord where else can we go but to You, oh Sovereign Lord. Praise You above all the else oh Lord and no matter the circumstances or the situations or the crisis may we in one accord look upon the Cross and proclaim as it is written, "For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord." Romans 8:38-39
I am but one thread in the tapestry of life who is deeply and intimately known by my LORD,
