Das Wort zum Sonn(en)tag :-)


"Meine Gedanken sind nicht eure Gedanken u eure Wege sind nicht meine Wege - Spruch des Herrn.
So hoch der Himmel ueber der Erde ist, so hoch erhaben sind meine Wege ueber eure Wege u meine Gedanken ueber eure Gedanken.
Denn wie der Regen u der Schnee vom Himmel faellt u nicht dorthin zurueckkehrt, sondern die Erde traenkt u sie zum Keimen u Sprossen bringt, .... , so ist es auch mit dem Wort, das meinen Mund verlaesst: Es kehrt nicht leer zu mir zurueck, sondern bewirkt, was ich will, und erreicht all das, wozu ich es ausgesandt habe."
(Aus der Bibel, Jesaja Kapitel 55 - sehr empfehlenswert das ganze Kapitel zu lesen. Aus Interesse hatte ich heute morgen in der Bibel mal die Woerter Schnee u Himmel rausgesucht u da kam ich auf diese Verse)

"For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, declares the Lord.
As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.
As the rain and the snow come down from heaven and do not return to it without watering the earth and making it bud and flourish, ..., so is my word that goes out from my mouth: It will not return to me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it."
(from the Bible, Isaiah Chapter 55 - I can only recommend to read the whole chapter.Out of curiosity I was searching the words heaven and snow in the Bible and found these verses)

This week I have been thinking about the verse in Job that says "Have you entered the treasury of snow?". Sometimes it almost feels like I have. ;)

Lovely scripture, Gudl.
I've been meaning to ask you what type of fencing you use for Daisy.

It doesn't look like anything I've seen before.

Oh Gudl, what beautiful scriptures to go with your lovely picture.

God is so good, just reading those words of His, made me feel so alive and blessed to be called "Christian".

LOL:)
