Isaiah 30:15….In returning and rest you shall be saved. In quietness and confidence shall be your strength…
My sister asked me to make an Elsa necklet for her nearly 3 year old granddaughter but I haven’t made anything since before Co-Vid as my little business closed when it hit. I used to sell teddy bears with funny poems and all sorts of crafts. Anyway I rummaged in all my jewellery making boxes to find the right colours and was amazed at how I just slipped back into it all, a bit like riding a bike!
You might be at a stage in life where all your busyness and routines have come in the way of your relationship with God, without you even realising. Perhaps your daily bible reading has slipped out of importance or you just squeeze it in for 5 minutes as a duty, not really giving God or it much attention.
If so, can I encourage you to come back to Him, to pick up your bible reading again, like I did with the jewellery making, and allow God to draw you to Him so you can enjoy His joy and peace again? Isaiah 30:18 So the Lord must wait for you to come to him, so he can show his love and compassion…
Life can be very unsettling and we need an anchor when it starts to blow us about. The night before last we had a fierce thunder storm and next morning my flower boxes looked a bit battered about. We’re like that too!
Life’s storms can bash us about and if that’s you, or you’ve lost your sparkle, then let your loving Heavenly Father wrap His arms round you again and let Him help and strengthen you as you come back to Him. There is life and health in His words and we all need them, no matter whether we’re close or far from God, and we need them every day.
Why not find one of your favourite verses, or something you know has spoken to you in the past and let the Holy Spirit enthuse you again? It’s a bit like riding a bike.😊
Isaiah 30: 19…He will be gracious if you ask for help. He will surely respond to the sound of your cries.
