You are 2 adult men. 22 and 20 years old. One is about to get married, one is living away from home. How did we arrive to this day I still wonder. when the time passed and the memories are saved? All the love and games, and bible reading and sciences and math, and history and geography have passes into a book in my heart where I can re read any time I want. To visit those places of ice creams and talks next to the bed and rating meals, and nerf battles are as vivid in my memory as if they were yesterday.
Here we are now. All the work is done on my end of the table. And no all I have is pray for you. Pray that the Lord will guide you in His glorious way. That you would continue to walk and that he may increase the love in you. To wait and see Him finishing the work in your life and me, learning to rest in Him.
I now, wait upon the Lord.
Remember as you walk, that no matter how great your sin is, the grace of the Lord is greater! It will cover any sin.. just come to Him.
I was reading Isaiah 30 today, and how gives warning to the obstinate children of Israel. Those who go about and do their pleasing without consulting God first. and how they forgot about their Lord, and did evil. They rejected His message and loved deceit. How they had no repentance nor salvation because of their rebellions. And on verse 18, it says:
"YET THE LORD LONGS TO BE GRACIOUS TO YOU; THEREFORE HE WILL RISE UP TO SHOW YOU COMPASSION. For the Lord is a God of justice. Blessed re all who wait on Him! People of Zion, who live in Jerusalem, you will weep no more. How gracious he will be when you cry for help! As soon as he hears, he will answer you. Although the Lord gives you the bread of adversity and the water of affliction, your teachers will be hidden no more; with your own eyes you will see them. Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, “This is the way; walk in it.” Then you will desecrate your idols overlaid with silver and your images covered with gold; you will throw them away like a menstrual cloth and say to them, “Away with you!”
Hear this sons and always look to Christ and teach this beautiful truth to your children.
My prayers will follow you every day.
Mom.
