So, I went out to feed the
birds yesterday afternoon, after the rain. It was beautiful! Whitewing cooing,
rain drops collecting on the leaves and slowly dripping into the puddles the
sparrows were drinking out of. I just love watching how God provides for His
created. ♥
It was then, just as I
stepped under the edge of the outdoor roof, I noticed rain drops on a bamboo
leaf….but the bamboo is over 20 feet way?! But oh, this branch was
reaching all the way from the labyrinth to the place I stood. Such a life
picture, right? God does that…He reaches out and reigns right where we are!
Like life, when I think I’m
too far, or there’s a storm coming thru my life, He reaches down and reigns all
over the situation. He pours out His Peace, washes away the worries and stills
my soul. He is there to celebrate with us in the Joys of life He brings. He
heals our sorrows in the paths of prayer…
All this is for your sake;
and as God's grace reaches
more and more people,
they will offer to the glory of God
more prayers of thanksgiving.
For this reason we never become discouraged.
Even though our physical being
is gradually decaying,
yet our spiritual being
is renewed day after day.
II Corinthians 4:15 & 16
He reaches, He always
reaches…all we need to do is reach back and take hold of His promises and trust
in the reign.
