Isaiah
I've been studying Isaiah since August through Precept upon Precept. The depth of God's word never ceases to amaze me. This week there were two verses that have been resonating in my mind and heart.
Isaiah 30:15 (New American Standard Bible)
15For thus the Lord GOD, the Holy One of Israel, has said,
"In repentance and rest you will be saved,
In quietness and trust is your strength."
But you were not willing,
and..
Isaiah 32:17 (New American Standard Bible)
17And the work of righteousness will be peace,
And the service of righteousness, quietness and confidence forever.
From Isaiah 30:15
The idea of: REST=BEING SAVED and QUIETNESS & TRUST=STRENGTH go against every natural instinct I have. This past week I would sing Jesus loves me with the children I get to invest in. 'We are weak but He is strong'. Though a children's song the concept never changes. Lord help me to dwell in this truth.
From Isaiah 32:17
I love the promise that God's Spirit brings. Peace, quietness and confidence. There is a woman that I am meeting up with from my church. I see these things in her life. Peace, a quiet heart because of her trust in God, and confidence in His promises. What I long for, I am able to have access to. Every day I get to see how God's work in the lives of men and women leads to the most restful life in spite of circumstances.
God longs to be near me. Rest. Trust. Peace. Quietness. Confidence. Forever.
And the service of righteousness, quietness and confidence forever.
From Isaiah 30:15
The idea of: REST=BEING SAVED and QUIETNESS & TRUST=STRENGTH go against every natural instinct I have. This past week I would sing Jesus loves me with the children I get to invest in. 'We are weak but He is strong'. Though a children's song the concept never changes. Lord help me to dwell in this truth.

Joy through discipline
Some things I find easy to be disciplined in: eating my daily handful (or two or three) of chocolate chips, preparing a meal for our family, exercising regularly so I can keep eating my chocolate chips, and setting aside time with my husband each night. Some things I find more difficult to be disciplined in. One of those things includes waking up earlier than necessary.
But this year my husband and I sat down and decided that we wanted to wake up early to have time to read our bibles and pray together. Some mornings that means getting up at 5:30. For many of you I'm sure this is normal. It's an adjustment for me. Any thing before 6 doesn't seem humane.
We've just started this schedule and I'm thankful we can do it together. I'm thankful I have a husband who desires to know God more. I'm thankful for the ways God speaks to my heart in the stillness of the morning before the sun declares the day.
I was recently reading one of my favorite blogs called Girltalk. It's a mother and her grown daughters encouragement on life and being a godly woman. The 5 O'clock club was something they started a few years back and they encourage others to join with them. 5:30 is pushing it for this gal for now so I'll start the 5:30, 5:40, 5:45 get up already club.
"The precepts of the Lord are right, giving joy to the heart...they are more precious than gold, than much pure gold; they are sweeter than honey, than honey from the comb." Psalm 19:8,10
It's worth it.
