An unintended hiatus! It seems that it is difficult to pinpoint an exact thought or idea that we are learning, as every day brings with it new challenges and insights. I pray you are all well, and learning every day, as we are. For now, I will leave you with a thought that God has been communicating to me, though my own stubbornness fails to let it soak in completely. But God is good--he gives us his word during trials in his life to sustain and uplift us.

Isaiah 55:6-9

Seek the Lord while he may be found; call upon him while he is near; let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts; let him return to the Lord, that he may have compassion on him, and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon. For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, declares the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.

Even as you go about your day, planning for the present and future, contemplating the past, keep in mind that it is not you in control, but the Lord.

Peace

J
