I thought I had exhausted God\u2019s early morning wonders, but not so yesterday. As I snapped this view of the sun\u2019s rays, I thought: \u201cAnd God said\u2026..\u201d Oh, if ever we needed God’s “saids” with clarity, it is in these times. I sensed He was “saying” and we only need to lend an ear. A neighbor walked by me and remarked \u201cIsn\u2019t that the most beautiful sunrise?\u201d And I replied with gusto: \u201cAnd God said\u2026\u201d The man said \u201cI think so, too!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So this blog today is straight from Heaven Central to us earthlings! No doubt, God is wanting to get through to His rebellious, disobedient, contrary, and ornery kids because He loves us way too much to let us go on like this. I\u2019m one of those who needs to be reminded of His words from way before this day and time. He probably \u2013 no, surely \u2013 had us in mind when He spoke them the first time. Let’s listen to what our Father is saying. I, with you, want to hear Him and purpose to obey Him with my words AND actions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
