I am so full of anticipation as we seek the Lord together....Not a pumped up kind of excitement, but rather a gentle hope-filled faith and confidence that God is at work among us. In Mexico, in Frisco, and in Paris. I can only bow before Him with thankfulness.
I have read in the Word, and I have heard some say that God loves to work through the small, the weak, the insignificant. Sometimes my human mind doesn't really comprehend that. But this morning I remembered that in the early summer, when the flowers are blooming in profusion in the woods and on the mountain, that my favorite ones are the small, delicate, often
unnoticed flowers. Some are not even recognized in the numerous wild flower books. But when I am walking through the woods, I recognize them and delight in them in their amazing beauty. They cause me to smile and rejoice in their Designer.......The Lord has been speaking to me about how He looks across the earth (He is called "the Watcher of men") and when He sees the small and insignificant man or woman sincerely loving Him and seeking His face, then He smiles and delights in them. So don't let "the accuser of the brethren" tell you that what you are doing makes little difference. Our prayer and worship and crying out to our great God and Father is incense rising to His throne. The Watcher of men is smiling and rejoicing over us!
The Lord your God is in your midst,
A mighty Warrior to save.
He will exult over you with joy
He will renew you with His love,
He will rejoice over you with shouts of joy. Zeph. 3:17
