In English we say: 

"I'm trying to trust the process." 

In poetry we say: 

"I'm planting seeds in the dark and believing they'll find the sun." 

~ unknown 

- I found several variations with no one cited.

Sunday Scripture

Psalms 27:4-5 One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to enquire in his temple. For in the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion: in the secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set me up upon a rock.

Favorite Book Friday

Seeking Persephone (The Lancaster Family series Book 1) by Sarah M. Eden Regency romance. Loved it! The movie does it justice. Funny, touching, heartwarming, and so much more. Wonderful characters. Well done retelling of Beauty and the Beast. I only wish I'd read it sooner. Better late than never.

Sunday Scripture

Psalms 27:1-3 (A Psalm of David.) The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell. Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident.

Favorite Book Friday

Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir Science Fiction Adventure. I loved the movie, so a friend gave me the book. I loved it, too. Some things I liked better in the movie, and some things I liked better in the book. The movie is loosely based on the book, but I feel like they enrich each other. There is a little swearing and adult situations in the book that are not in the movie, but it didn't detract from the story; it made sense in context. I'm not a science-y sort, but I did find it interesting. The main characters captured my heart. The end is unexpected and perfect. Happy. Happy. Happy.

I needed the reminder:

If you think you've blown God's plan for your life, 

rest in this: 

You, my beautiful friend, are not that powerful. 

 

Sunday Scripture

Psalms 3:5 I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for the LORD sustained me.

Favorite Book Friday

When God Doesn't Fix It by Laura Story nonfiction Christian inspirational. Laura Story (Elvington) shares her journey with her husband Martin, more particularly from his diagnosis of a brain tumor, surgery, and beyond. She talks about the Myths and the Truths. She wrote "Indescribable" and "Blessings" and "I Can Just Be Me." Inspiring, uplifting, encouraging, especially for those in the midst of trials and tribulations that feel like they never end. Some don't and it isn't because God doesn't love us. He has a different plan than we do, and His plan is always better than our plan.

Stay in the habit of 

'glancing' at your problems and 

'gazing' at the Lord.
