ABC Thursday - the letter A

The word on my heart for the last two days has been ABIDE.
I know Pam used it too, but I have waited all day (almost) for a new revalation...
and God wants me to abide!
My life has been spinning around me, emotions up and down.
I have experienced joy that is new and refreshing.
I am abiding.
Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself unless i abides in the vine, so neither can you unless you abide in Me.
John 15:4
If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you.
John 15:7
Just as the Father has loved Me, I have also loved you; abide in My love.
John 15:9

It is a GOOD word. Someone else posted ABIDE...no big deal...it's whatever any one wants...especially if we all post thoughts it will be different for each of us.

Yes, I do believe this is the third post using "abide." That confirms to me that this isn't a co-incidence -- it's a God-incidence. In the Scriptures when something is mentioned three times that is God telling us to pay attention.

Wow.

Mercy, grace and peace to you, Lana
This seemed to be the popular verse and rightly so-it's a powerful verse to ABIDE by!!

This is the coolist thing to be involved in!

I also like your new background!!

My emotions have been up and down the last few days, too. I like this abiding thing. Great post!

I Close My Eyes

Well, I did it. I took the writer's challenge at a blog that I have been lurking around for some time. I found this blog through Laura at Wellblog 's place and have been enthralled ever since. I have dabbled in poetry on and off. Written some invitations, cards, and even a few song lyrics (for fun) but have been hesitant to post any. (roaring lion? see below post ) With the encouragement of a friend, I decided to take the challenge on L.L.Barkat's blog, in a lesson on seeing. I chose a subject that is cherished, a memory that was real and something close to my heart. The beach. Many, many days were spent at the beach in the 12 years I lived on the Southern Virginia coast. The memories are real, and when.......... I close my eyes and I can still see the beach. The endless spans of water Sometimes blue, green, or gray. It moves Gently and Violently Bubbles rise and falling forward. On and on. I close my eyes and I can still hear the crash Of tidal movement As earth slowly spi...

A Promise is a Promise (Grand Canyon)

Many years ago, I am guessing about 19 of them, our family visited the Grand Canyon for one day, on the way home from a trip to California to visit family.  Our eldest son was around 11, our middle one around 9, and our baby was a little over a year old.  Our boys wanted desperately to hike into the canyon, but our oldest one especially so.  He pleaded and my husband and I held firm our "No" as our youngest was too young and we were not outfitted for such an adventure.  I promised that we would return one day. A few months later we moved to the East Coast of Virginia.  Not planned when we stood at the edge of the canyon and that promise was made. And the many times we planned vacation time to the beach, our son reminded me of that promise to go the the Grand Canyon. Time flew quickly and years later we had not returned to the Grand Canyon.  But, we did move to Texas and as we looked at spending time as a family, our oldest son brought this promise bac...
