LBR Quips & Quotes

Think About It

Eternity or the ever present now?
Time is of no essence to the Almighty.
Last week......... Last year.......... Last Century.......... Last Millennium...........
yet with God a thousand years is only as a day.

For me, time wants to master.
Too little time. Too much time.
What Time? How Long? When?
What will I Do?

“I will sing of the mercies of the LORD forever;
With my mouth will make known your faithfulness to all generations".
Psalm 89:1

Daily, I am overwhelmed at how I can trust You!
It is marvelous to enjoy Your steadfast love that is unbound by time and cuts across the lines of generations. To enjoy Your mercies, not just past or tomorrow in eternity. Not just to read about them, but to enjoy them as a creature entrapped by time, in the ever-present now. I have now and I have hope and peace in You.

What more do I need? What more can I ask for?

I will proclaim Your provision, Your promises, Your grace, Your love as I will delight in the ever-present now all the way through eternity.

Cousins

More Than a Dream... I Ride

So give me a stretch of plain
As far as the eye can see.
Then behind a flowing mane,
Well mounted you will find me.

I will race the clouds on high
With the wind running by my side.
Upon a mighty steed , I'll fly.
Will be more than a dream, I ride.

Yonder distance the clouds disappear.
The hoofbeats too will grow faint.
The challenge has erased all fear,
To the horizon there is no restraint.

I will return, show no remorse.
Each passing cloud will bring another
I've thoroughly enjoyed this far flung course
And that fine horse I rode, has a brother.

What God Does....

Many live aimlessly asking, "What does God do?"
I live amazed proclaiming, “What God Does…”

Latch on and Grow

I like this picture that Robin captured. How many times I have walked through a doorway or under tree limbs only to be greeted by a nearly invisible cobweb... I start flailing in the air and wiping the sticky slimy matter from my face and clothes. However, this morning-glory that has been climbing our clothesline post found the opportunity of reaching out and growing in a most surprising fashion. Perhaps there is a lesson here. Rather than be entangled in the annoyances of life that come our way... and be certain that they will, look for opportunity to latch on and grow and share beauty in ways that only God is able to provide.
