When I walked through the forest with my friend Cath, this morning, we talked about our Sunday's sermon. I also shared this beautiful quote:
The Valley of Humiliation is not always a barren place; God’s “forget-me-nots” are growing there! And they are always to be found by those who know how to search for them.
Come now, and let us reason together, said the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool. (Isaiah 1:18)
GOD'S FORGET-ME-NOTS
Sometimes the Lord brings low - and lifts up. This verse out of the Book of Isaiah is one of God's amazing "forget-me-nots" special for me. Would you like to share some of (your) God's "forget-me-nots" here?
CASTING ALL your care upon Him for he careth for you!--I Peter 5:7

I remember hearing that this verse was on a nation's flag. I googled and can't find it. Have you ever heard that? Maybe I am confused... ;-)
Another promise that came to me and I had to come back and tell you..."Draw nigh to God and HE WILL DRAW NIGH to you!"--James 4:8 :)
BeantwoordenVerwijderenI love the verse you shared. Also 1 John 1:9 If we confess our sins He is faithful and just to forgive our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenI thought of more, but I'll wait and see what others say! :)
BeantwoordenVerwijderenAmen!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenthe little forget-me-nots are so sweet, thank you for such precious reminders of His promises!
“As I was with Moses, so I will be with you; I will never leave you nor forsake you.” Joshua 1:5
Prachtig die vergeet-mijn-nietjes!
BeantwoordenVerwijderen" En laten we niet moe worden goed te doen, want te Zijner tijd zullen wij oogsten, als wij niet opgeven."
(Galaten 6:9)
VerwijderenI love thinking of God's promises as "God's forget-me-nots." : )
