Quotes

Quote of the Week

“Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have summoned you by name; you are mine. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze.”

-God
Reflections

His Heart, Our Heart

‘For the Lord has chosen Zion; he has desired it for his dwelling place: “This is my resting place forever; here I will dwell, for I have desired it.” ‘ Psalm 132:13-14

Most of us probably know of the war going on in the Middle East, specifically Israel. Thousands of people are dying, children are being kidnapped, people lay in hiding while rockets and bombs fall around them. And for many it may seem that darkness has won. Even that God has forgotten them.

But He hasn’t. “Can a mother forget the baby at her breast and have no compassion on the child she has borne? Though she may forget, I will not forget you! See, I have engraved you on the palms of my hands; your walls are ever before me.” ‘ Isaiah 49:15

No matter how far Israel has gone in sin, He still loves them. And His love for them, the people He chose, is everlasting.

And Jesus is inviting us to join with Him in His heart for His people Israel. To be watchmen posted on the walls, who give ourselves no rest until the Lord comes back and reigns in Zion. To not be silent until her light shines out. (Isaiah 62).

To cry for what He cries for, to pray for what He prays for, to have a broken heart for what breaks His.

He loves Jerusalem. We love Him. And so we love what He loves. And we pray for what He prays for.

Lord, save your people.

Reflections

Who Will You Follow?

We live in a generation that wants to be “woke”, aware of everything people say and do, a generation that, in short, wants to live offended.

But then we see Jesus, He was betrayed, disowned, mocked, basically He had every reason to be offended. But He still gave up everything for us. Dying on a cross all for love. Because He desires us.

He laid down His life for us. For people who spit in His face, who said terrible things about Him. This is the greatest love. (John 15:13)

So who are we going to be like? Are we going to be a generation living offended? A generation who lives complacent, dull, dry?

Or are we going to be like Jesus, who lived a life of complete servanthood, laid down, even unto death. Picking up our crosses and following Him. (Luke 9:23) Because He is so worth it.

“No longer do I call you servants, for the servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all that I have heard from my Father I have made known to you.” -John 15:15

‘And he said to all, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me. For whoever would save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will save it.” ‘ -Luke 9:23

Such a hard question because I have so many!!! But one of my most favorites at the moment is Chasing Shadows by Lynn Austin.

Weelll again super hard, but right now in summer I’ve really just been loving a nice, full of ice, fruit smoothie. (not trying to purposefully rhyme here haha) I had a really good strawberry one at Dutch Bros the other day so that’s probably my top 😋

I’m finding out that picking just one is so hard lol

But one of my really favorites is a blog/weekly devotional: https://annablanc.com/

My phone probably

This is at the zoo. The cutest little red panda everrrrr

hmmm, probably early in the morning (6-7 am, I find it hard to wake up that early though 🙃 I’m really trying though) and also 9 pm, because it’s like my “quiet time”where I spend time with Jesus 🤍

It depends, I’m not really working on any books right now, I’m pressing flowers though. So that’s cool!!! Can’t wait to show you all!

Red Pandas and Foxes !!! They’re both so cute!

Dogs for sure!

Girl: Riley, Charlotte, Rose, Grace

Boy: Luke, Jackson, Isaiah, Justice

(I know this was more than one 🙃🙃)

Peaches, Grapes, Bananas

anything Mexican! (specifically Tacos!!!)

Watercolor painting!

Spring or Summer!!!

I’m going to say May, because its the perfect mix between warm but still cool.

I know this isn’t one exact color but the sunset! its just the best!!!

Sunny, with a little breeze

The Psalms

Psalm 27:4

“One thing have I asked 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 gaze upon the beauty of the Lord and to inquire in his temple.”

Vanilla

Just loose hair, kind of like a 90’s blowout look.

I don’t know a whole lot about bunnies lol, but Holland Lops are really cuteeee, so probably those!

Again don’t know a whole lot about this but probably Gypsy or Paint Horses

Golden Doodles!!!
