GodAware

September 7, 2013

On the FlightAware website, Kathy checked the progress of the small plane her husband Chuck was piloting to Chicago. With a few clicks, she could track when he took off, where his flight was at any moment, and exactly when he would land. A few decades earlier when Chuck was a pilot in West Africa, Kathy’s only contact had been a high-frequency radio. She recalls one occasion when 3 days had passed before she was able to reach him. She had no way of knowing that he was safe but unable to fly because the airplane had been damaged.

But God was always aware of exactly where Chuck was and what he was doing, just as He is with us (Job 34:21). Nothing is hidden from His sight (Heb. 4:13). He knows our thoughts and our words (1 Chron. 28:9; Ps. 139:4). And He knows what will happen in the future (Isa. 46:10).

God knows everything (1 John 3:20), and He knows you and me intimately (Ps. 139:1-10). He is aware of each temptation, each broken heart, each illness, each worry, each sorrow we face.

What a comfort to experience care from the One of whom it is said, “Oh, the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God!” (Rom. 11:33).

Beneath His watchful eye
His saints securely dwell;
That hand which bears all nature up
Shall guard His children well. —Doddridge
We can trust our all-knowing God.

Read: Psalm 139:1-10

Oh, the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! —Romans 11:33
Bible in a Year:
Proverbs 1-2; 1 Corinthians 16

Don’t worry, Gail. I’m the same way. I actually have to walk over to the calendar on the fridge to see what today is!! I laid back down this morning and I gotta get myself cleaned up and dressed for the day. I need some things from the grocery store but don’t wanna go. I would like to have a meatloaf and some deviled eggs but need the stuff to make both. Its so hard to cook for just one. I also need to get some vegetables to cook just because they’re good for us! And I need fresh vegetables ‘cause they’re much better for us! Maybe I’ll make a list before I go. Actually, I’m not in a hurry. I usually do make a list though.

Have a great Saturday (Caturday!) I love your little graphic! Praying for the safety of our troops, too.

It WAS quite a scandal at the time.

They were not allowed to cross the Canadian border into the USA because of their naughtiness.

Light Up The Night

September 8, 2013

On a mild fall evening when the sky was dark and the moon was full, thousands of people in my hometown gathered along the banks of the river to light sky lanterns. They released them into the darkness, and watched as the lights rose to join the moon in a dazzling display that turned the night sky into a sparkling work of art.

When I saw pictures of the event, I was disappointed that I was out of town and had missed it. But a few days later I realized that what had happened in Grand Rapids could be seen as a symbol of the conference I was attending in New York City. More than 1,000 people from 100 cities around the world had gathered there to plan a “work of art”—how to light up the darkness of their own cities by planting churches and reaching thousands of people with the gospel of Christ, the Light of the world.

The prophet Daniel wrote about a time when those who turn others to the Lord will shine like stars forever (Dan. 12:3). We can all join in that great event. When we shine the light of Christ in dark places where we live and work, He is lighting up the night sky with stars that never will go out.

I want to shine for You in my world, Lord. Show
me how to lift You up, the Light of the world. I look
forward to that day when I will gather with people
from all nations to bow at Your feet and worship You.
When the Light of the world illuminates the earth, His beauty will attract people from every nation.

Read: Daniel 12:1-3

Those who are wise shall shine like the brightness of the firmament. —Daniel 12:3
Bible in a Year:
Proverbs 3-5; 2 Corinthians 1

Beautiful scenic picture and I love the words!

Wishing you a lovely, peaceful Sunday!

Fixed more delicious bacon and toast with blackberry jam....so delicious! Also orange juice and small glass of milk. Won’t be hungry anymore until 3 or 4 o’clock, if then! I think I enjoy breakfast more than other meal. I always sit and enjoy my coffee for a good while before I feel like fixing breakfast!

Wishing you and all of Amy’s Friends a beautiful Sunday!
