TLWS: Friday, Week Fourteen

 

Happy Friday, Friends!  How has your week been?  Did you enjoy this week's lesson?  I loved it, and it truly humbled me.  God has done so much for us!  

We are asked to consider the actions God took in the following passage:

In a desert land he found him,

    in a barren and howling waste.

He shielded him and cared for him;

    he guarded him as the apple of his eye,

like an eagle that stirs up its nest

    and hovers over its young,

that spreads its wings to catch them

    and carries them aloft.

The Lord alone led him;

    no foreign god was with him.

He made him ride on the heights of the land

    and fed him with the fruit of the fields.

He nourished him with honey from the rock,

    and with oil from the flinty crag,

with curds and milk from herd and flock

    and with fattened lambs and goats,

with choice rams of Bashan

    and the finest kernels of wheat.

You drank the foaming blood of the grape.

~Deuteronomy 32:10-14

I must say I love the lyrical metaphors in these verses!  

We are also challenged to offer up to God our "empty jars" so we can see how he can use them.

Let's all try this and share how God takes something little from us and turns it into something huge.  God will make a way!

Prayer requests?

I've heard from several of you who also want to pray for our elections: local, state, and national.  Also, let's pray for our school board elections in particular because our nation's children are under attack.

Until next time...

Blessings!
