A to Z ~Y~ Yokes and Youth

Yellow Hibiscus

Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.  Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.  For my yoke is easy and My burden is light.

Matthew 11:28-30

He satisfies ours mouth with good things, 

So that our youth is renewed like the eagle’s. 

Psalm 103:5

Who doesn’t want an easy yoke and a renewed youth?  

Lord, I want to always follow Your path, 

it is so much better than my path could ever be. 

Thank You, Yahweh.

A to Z ~W~ Waiting

Wisteria

Wait on the Lord; Be of good courage, 

And He shall strengthen your heart; 

Wait, I say, on the Lord!  

Psalm 27:14

Waiting is hard.  I know I don't like it.  Especially in today's society, we want everything now!   But waiting is something that we as Christians will do, and we'll keep doing it until we go Home to be with Jesus.  The good thing about waiting is the rewards we reap.  

But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; 

they shall mount up with wings as eagles; 

they shall run, and not be weary; 

and they shall walk, and not faint.

Isaiah 40:31

I'd say that's one pretty good reward for waiting.

A to Z ~V~ Being Vigilant

Violet Sunset

Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks 

about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.

1 Peter 5:8

It is so easy to fall into a trap of getting distracted or angry.   When we keep our eyes (our hearts, that is) heavenward, we will be less likely to see the distractions the devil is tossing our way  If God said, “Pray without ceasing,” He must be willing communicate back with us, don’t you think?

From His mouth come knowledge and understanding

Trust in the Lord with all your heart,

And lean not on your own understanding

Love her, and she will keep you.

Therefore get wisdom.

And in all your getting, get understanding.

and an even deeper love for Your word.
