Now you can soar like eagles… Day 43
40:31 Isaiah “But those who trust in the LORD will find new strength. They will soar high on wings like eagles. They will run and not grow weary. They will walk and not faint.” (NLT)

What a great verse! Isaiah shares with people of all ages the lesson that we too often forget. Our strength comes from the Lord. We get that strength by trusting in Him. With that strength we can do great things… not on our own but with His help and guidance and direction. It gives us endurance. It gives us perseverance. It gives us momentum. It takes us farther than we ever imagined we could go. AND it brings us safely home to our heavenly Father. It doesn’t get better than that!! Trust Him and soar!!

Click ‘Like’ on this post and click ‘Share’ to pass along this verse to your friends, family, and others on your email lists. Ask what gives them strength to go through each day. Ask what gives them added strength to go through tough times or disappointments. Let them know that God is there ALL the time. He will help them. He will give them strength. With Him there with us, we can do some amazing things. Then Take Time For God’s Word© and experience His strength each new day. As you are walking about today, repeat this verse. As you see birds flying overhead, repeat this verse. As you see joggers or runners outside, repeat this verse. Soon, you will be reminded of it often AND it will bring you strength for the journey that God has in mind for you. Stay blessed!

We again pray for our family and friends. You know their needs. You know their relationship with God. Help them to stay close to Him. Be the one who keeps showing God’s love to them. Tell them that you pray for them. Tell them and show them that you love them. They will respond. It may take time. God will give you the strength to be patient with them. You be a blessing to each of them today. Pass it on and do not grow weary of doing good for others! ... See MoreSee Less

Choose that which is everlasting!… Day 42
40:28 Isaiah “Have you never heard? Have you never understood? The LORD is the everlasting God, the Creator of all the earth. He never grows weak or weary. No one can measure the depths of his understanding.” (NLT)

With all of the social media, cable news, messaging, emails, etc., it is surprising (to me) that there are STILL people who have not heard the Good News about Jesus. It surprised Isaiah in his day also that people had not heard or understood the wonder of God and what He had done for His people. It tells me that we are not done yet…we still need to share the Gospel with the world. And it starts by sharing it with one person at a time. Let His light shine through you. It is the only thing that lasts eternally!

Click ‘Like’ on this post and click ‘Share’ to route this verse to all of your friends on social media. Ask them who was the smartest person to ever life. Ask them how they compare that knowledge or wisdom with what God knows and has done. No comparison. We need to know that God is there for us… He never gets tired of hearing our prayers. He doesn’t grow weary from doing good for us each day. He wants US to be closer to Him and to His love for us. How great is that! Please continue to Take Time For God’s Word© and KNOW that He is watching over you. Keep sharing. Keep caring. Keep loving others as Christ has loved us… unconditionally. Continue to set reminders on your phone to pop up at times for key verses… 3:16… 8:28… 5:16, 5:17, 5:18… 10:10… 11:28. I can’t help but smile and say ‘thank you Lord’ when I see those times and recall those verses (and more). God is good ALL the time. He has blessed you (and me) beyond measure because of His immeasurable love! Be that kind of blessing to others!

Continue your prayers for all of the youth music programs and choirs at your church or fellowship group. What a blessing. What enthusiasm in their voices and what expression in their arms as they show His love in action. We need that in our churches. We need that in our communities. We need that in our world. The joy of the Lord being sung and shared and acted out each day with great love and enthusiasm. Encourage them. Support their growth in faith. Stay blessed in ALL that you do! Pass it on so that ALL people will one day hear the Gospel message. ... See MoreSee Less

Who can give advice to God?… Day 41
40:13 Isaiah “Who is able to advise the Spirit of the LORD? Who knows enough to give him advice or teach him?” (NLT)

Isaiah asks who can hold the oceans…or measure the skies…or weigh the earth or the mountains. He reminds the rulers of the earth that we are ALL subject to the will of God. We are not the ones to be giving God instructions. Yet, there are people who seem to want to do that. We are to ALL be humble and grateful to God for ALL that He has done for us. Be glad to follow His will and plans for your life. What a great life it will be!!

Click ‘Like’ on this post and click ‘Share’ to pass along this verse to family, friends, and co-workers in the faith. Ask if they have ever wanted to give advice to God. Ask why they felt that they needed to do that. We generally want to have God do things OUR way… not submitting our lives to do things HIS way. Big difference. That is faith… trusting in the will and timing of God. Do that each day. And, Take Time For God’s Word© to be reminded of His promises AND all of the blessings which He has already delivered to you. Help others to learn to trust Him. Help people to look to the needs of others first. Help your friends to seek and to be a blessing to others. It is incredible to fit into the amazing plans that God has for you!

Pray for all of the youth outreach programs and mission projects. These continue all throughout the year. They teach kids to watch out for the needs of people in their community. They give kids a purpose and opportunities. Please continue to encourage all of them in what they do. Stay blessed. Pass it on by being willing to listen to God and then by doing what He asks. ...

God’s Word lasts…forever!…. Day 40
40:08 Isaiah “The grass withers and the flowers fade, but the word of our God stands forever." (NLT)

Here Isaiah reminds us all that time is passing quickly. What is here today, may be gone tomorrow. We need to invest our lives into something which lasts…eternally. That is why we focus on the Word of God. His Word will last forever! Nothing else compares. Riches are fleeting. Fame is fickle. Appearances grow old. All earthly things will come to an end. God’s Word gives us the only hope of heaven. Enjoy learning it now and sharing it with others!

Click ‘Like’ on this post and click ‘Share’ to relay this verse to all of your friends on social media. Ask if they have ever heard this verse before (it is a VERY well known verse). Ask if they have anything that they own which will last… forever. Most things in our world have short warranties. Some things may have a lifetime warranty but it ends when that person dies. Only God can promise and deliver what lasts into eternity. So, continue to Take Time For God’s Word© often each day. When you see beautiful flowers, remember this verse. As fall/ winter turns your lawns brown, think of this verse. As you recall your favorite Bible passage, recite this verse as well. It gives us the truth of God’s Word… it LASTS… FOREVER!

Please pray with me for all of the homeless shelters/ soup kitchens that are operating in all large or even mid-sized cities. We remember the Pacific Garden Mission (Chicago, IL) for their dedicated work among the poor and homeless. They have been doing this for 140+ years. They provide meals, shelter, comfort, and God’s Word to the men, women, and children who find themselves with no place to go. What a desperate feeling that must be. What grace God gives us to help them in such times. Give if you can. Support where you can. Stay blessed to be a blessing. Pass it on so that others hear God’s Word… that lasts forever! ...

What has God revealed to you?…. Day 39
40:05 Isaiah “Then the glory of the LORD will be revealed, and all people will see it together. The LORD has spoken!” (NLT)

Isaiah tells of a time when mountains will be leveled and valleys raised up… a time when the rough places will be made smooth. Then we will see the ‘glory of the Lord’. As we approach the time of Christmas, we will again hear the songs and read the words about the coming of Christ. Yet, we know that He also comes to live in our hearts and in our lives each day. We get to experience that always… and forever!

Click ‘Like’ on this post and click ‘Share’ to forward this verse to family, friends and neighbors. Ask if they have any new family traditions at Christmas time each year. Ask why those are so meaningful to them. For most of us, it is because we experience it together… surrounded by our loved ones. We already received the greatest gift EVER… Jesus came for us! Now, it is our turn to share that message with those who do not yet know Him. Pass it on each day! Continue to Take Time For God’s Word© and through any verses which come to mind each day. It is a way to be close to God through His Word and it only takes a few minutes at a time. You may have them on your phone. You may see them taped to your mirror or on your refrigerator. Take a moment to repeat them. See what God has planned for you today! It will be awesome… if you will just follow His plan!

We pray for all of the refugees around the world and for organizations like Exodus World Services (Park Ridge, IL) whose mission is to meet the needs of many of these refugees. I was pleased to see that an assignment in my grand-daughter’s 5th grade social studies was about a refugee center halfway around the world. The assignment asked them to comment about the impact of such a center in the lives of the people (and especially of the children) there. It is a lesson that we ALL need to think about often. It is an opportunity for each of us to support. Share where you can. Stay blessed to be a blessing. Pass it on through generous acts of love and kindness daily! ... See MoreSee Less
