A new porch ...
I have found a new porch to rest on ... my new house. Well, I moved into Jack's trailer when we got married and it has a BIG front porch!! It has always been nice but then we moved my rocking chair over and now its home :-)
So again I have to thank Caedmon's Call for this thought :-) Their music is good seriously ... this is from Overdressed and the name of the song is Sacred.
"when I forget to drink from you I can feel the banks harden - Lord, make me like a stream to feed the garden"
WOW! Seriously read it again (now) ok. When I forget to take time with the Lord either in prayer or reading his word is it any wonder that I'm ill - NO! My banks are hardening and I am not a flowing stream. Now my Mom will tell you that I am a babbling brook :-) (hehehehe - guess I talk a lot) but seriously when I am truly in fellowship with the Lord my life should be a stream to feed those who are dying either because of heat or lack of care. If I myself am dry and dying I can't do the job the Lord has called me to do.
The head pastor where I am interning this summer has challenged the staff to be more intentional about sharing the gospel and then he holds us accountable to it - we have to report on Monday mornings. Yeah, if I'm not a babbling brook that week the whole staff knows. ick! Praise the Lord for accountability!
Psalm 1 is a great chapter to memorize. "Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked or stand in the way of sinners or sit in the seat of mockers. But his delight is in the law of the Lord and on his law he meditates day and night. He is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither. Whatever he does prospers."
Be a babbling brook ... :-) It's fun!!
