Help

As I took my afternoon walk recently accompanied by my great nephew Cairon, a Common Grackle seemingly joined me in proclaiming the words of the Psalmist David ~ “I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence comes my help. My help comes  from the LORD, which made heaven and earth. - Psalm 121:1-2 Photo taken at: Mount Trashmore Park Virginia Beach, Va. Previously posted 11/22/2012

Misunderstood?

"I knew you before I formed you in your mother's womb”. 1 “I  love you with an everlasting love” 2 . At times, we may be  misunderstood by others. Words like these spoken from our  through the prophet Jeremiah, reminds us of the depth of God’s love for us. Even when others seem to misunderstand us, I think it would  be difficult for the One who knows and loves us to this degree to not  understand us.  To me, that’s good news! What do you think? Heavenly Father, sometimes when I am misunderstood by others, I become disappointed and  hurt. During these times, help me to respond through Your eyes of love, mercy, and grace, In Jesus’ name, Amen. 1. Jeremiah 1:5; 2. Jeremiah 31:3b  Photo:  Clouds formation taken: off Military Highway South Norfolk, Va. Shared with:  GraceInside
