As we came together Tuesday evening for Bible study, Psalm 139 was read. It was all the expression needed for those of who met together to pray for the families. There was no doubt in any of our minds at that point. God still has control, and His intentions and purpose are not to push any of us away, but His purpose and intent are to draw us in. He made us just us to be close to Him!
"I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be." Psalm 139:14-16
What a wonderful thought that He spent so much time to think about us and to plan out our lives so that they were bring the greatest glory to Him.
As I sat getting ready mentally to face the day ahead, I glanced out the window saw that it was snowing. My first thought was, "My goodness, it's Spring!" But once again my thoughts were soon directed by to Psalms 139 - ALL the days ordained for me were written . . . I guess that means snow in April!
In His grip,
Sheryl

Sheryl,
Sitting here at my desk, trapped by piles of paper work and sticky notes, this scripture brought tears to my eyes. I know the help of writing things down as I tend to forget things, OK, I forget things a lot! But hey, we're reading about God here. He doesn't forget anything but one, and yet HE wrote it down. Incredible. So why? Well, my puny brain thinks perhaps it's for me. And perhaps my brain has it wrong but I think that when I stand before him and the book is opened, there it is. My life. The good, the bad, the blessings and the blunders. All there. I know I have forgotten things that happened in my life, both blessings and blunders. So how sweet will it be when I am reminded of the blessings, and forgiven of the blunders. Wow. To see my sins erased and forgotten by Him.
Thanks Cindy for reading that scripture.
Truly, it's Amazing Grace.
Kathy
