What Did He Say?
Your words were found, and I ate them, and Your word was to me the joy and rejoicing of my heart. —Jeremiah 15:16

Because our son Steve spent most of his teen years connected to a cell phone, it was a bit of a shock for us when we couldn't talk with him for long periods of time after he joined the US Navy. First at boot camp and later while he trained as a hospital corpsman, we endured long periods of time without any communication. So it was a treat whenever we finally did hear from him.

After one of us would get his call, the first question from the other was always, "What did he say?" We hung on every word to hear how he was doing, what he was thinking, and what the Navy was planning for him.

It's natural to respond like this to the words of those who are important to us. We eagerly anticipate hearing from them.

Are we like that with the Word of God? Are we eager to communicate with Him—to look carefully into His Book to ask, "What did He say?" Unlike the infrequent calls from a son in the military, God's words of encouragement and guidance are always available to us. We just have to listen.

The prophet Jeremiah prayed, "Your words were found, and I ate them, and Your word was to me the joy and rejoicing of my heart" (Jer. 15:16). Do you have that same longing to hear God speak to you through His Word?

Thy Word is a lamp to my feet,
A light to my path alway
To guide and to save me from sin
And show me the heavenly way. —Anon.

We cannot know the heart of God unless we have a heart for God.

Bible in One Year: John 11–15; Proverbs 5:1-14

Thank you for the Friday Flyby! All good shots of our warbirds and the Piper Cub. My son....a pilot himself...named his daughter Piper after that plane! LOL! I am glad he didn’t name her after the helicopter he learned to fly in...Schweitzer! :D

Have a great weekend!

Hiya gal....been posting on the open forum? I believe there are a few folks who for whatever reason & perhaps even quite unintentional at times can cause one to have hurt feelings.

One certainly has to put on the armour on some threads!:)

You just hang out here for a bit....it’s a safety zone! *Hugs*

The week could have been better It seem I got some time of intestinal bug that wiped me out for four days.It was amazing.One minute i’m in the Gym running eight miles on the treadmill.The next thing I’m praying to the porceline god.

I would not wish that illness on anyone.Anyway I’m back in the swing of things.

Connie could you play some tracks from Blood,Sweat and Tears. That would be great.

I should have to meet y’all and your son someday.

I wanted our sons middle name to be Merlin, cause I figured he would need to be wizard to get by in this day and age.

Sadly Mrs alfa6 said no so we settled on Marshall.

Have a great weekend

Regards
