Almost six years since my last post. Wow. I have popped on this site several times intending to delete it. I am not really sure why I have not. But I decided to give it a try, once again.
Life within the castle walls has changed. Dramatically. Maybe that is why I don't write. Our warriors and maidens have grown. No longer children. All grown up, some having their own warriors and maidens. Some trying to figure out what their next step is. Some are fighting battles. Some have fled from the battle and surrendered to the enemy. Some seem like the enemy. Wow.....that is real life, not dramatic.
I decided to have a theme for the new year. HE IS FAITHFUL. In the messiness of life sometimes I forget just how faithful God is.
I was reading an email this morning. A verse that the sender used was Psalm 119:75. "I know, O LORD, that thy judgments are right, and that thou in faithfulness hast afflicted me." I am not saying that the trials that Hubby and I have faced are afflictions from God. I know, as the sender said, that nothing good or bad comes into our life without God allowing it. She followed up with Romans 8:28, "...all things work together for good to them that love God, to them that are the called according to His purpose."
The sender went on to remind us that God's faithfulness is to all generations (Ps. 119:90). God does not pick and choose generations to receive His faithfulness. God's faithfulness is limitless (Ps. 36:5). He is faithful despite our unfaithfulness (Lam 3:23, 2 Tim. 2:13).
For today that is all. I am going to reflect on His faithfulness.
It is almost time for Hubby to pull up from work. I need to get dinner on the table.
