Laughter in the Bible ??

May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit. Romans 13:15 

Laugher appears in 25 verses in the bible. 

 

Meaning to make the spontaneous sounds and movements of the face and body that are the instinctive expressions of lively amusement. 

 

When I look at the Bible and the words inscribed within its pages, I do encounter laughter. It’s a term that may not immediately come to mind. This led me to these questions: Does our heavenly Father possess a sense of humor? Is laughter a part of the divine realm?  I believe these thoughts are worth exploring further.

 

I have found when we deal with our Creator, there is always more!!! So, on my quest to discover more, I surprisingly found several verses documenting laughter in the Bible. However, from there, my thoughts drifted here. How can there be this amazing, uncontainable joy without smiles and joyous laughter? I say it's impossible!! 😀

 

Then I questioned why He wanted us to come as children. Have you ever watched children play? They have such an innocent joy that they burst into the most amazing giggles and broad laughter!!  It’s like heavenly music to our ears. I do believe our Father loves hearing our Joy!! So do not hold back. Find that inner child that lives within your soul.  Enjoy all the special moments of this life. Smile and burst out in uncontrollable laughter often. Keep making heavenly music to God’s ears! 

 

Furthermore, I also questioned why children hold a special place in Jesus's heart. If you've observed or studied children, they gravitate towards kindness, gentleness, and love.  They trust and are drawn to a fun-loving and caring heart, not to a grumpy and withdrawn soul. In my mind's eye, I see our Creator and His Son as beings of immense love and joy, offering us a love that surpasses our understanding. They bring us a joy that can't be explained, a joy that makes our hearts burst into giggles and spontaneous laughter. 

 

I have found that Laughter is the best medicine for our souls! It is a gift from God. Use it, Share it!! Do it often!! Enjoy each person and moment of every day!! Knowing in your heart that laughter is an amazing gift from God. 

 

 

”A time to weep and a time to laugh; A time to mourn and a time to dance” Ecclesiastes 3:4

”He will yet fill your mouth with laughter and your lips with shouting” Job 8:21

And Sarah said God hath made me to laugh. Genesis 21:6 -

Even in laughter, the heart may be in pain, And the end of joy may be grief. Proverbs 14:13

Tongues


 

"I have loved you, my people, with an everlasting love. With unfailing love, I have drawn you to myself." Jeremiah 31:3 NLT

Tongues are mentioned eighty-five times within the verses in the Bible. 

 

Tongues: used to describe a person's style or manner of speaking.

 

Tongues, what is this Heavenly language?  What is this spiritual gift? There is so much controversy about this word and its activities among churches and people. 


How can we better understand it? Is it a gift we should yearn for, or should we block or remove those scriptures from the Bible? 

 

I believe firmly that if you truly believe in God’s word. You can’t pick and choose what parts we like and dismiss the parts we do not. I feel when we do not agree or find a question with the written word. Our job is to do our research and get our souls comfortable enough to embrace what is outlined. 

 

So, I will admit I do not practice this gift. But I am at the infant stage of my understanding of this gift… However, if and when God wants to share this gift with me, I will be a willing vessel. If this is indeed a heavenly language and you plan to go to heaven one day, maybe we should be open to learning this language to communicate with the Father, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit.

 

Let’s put this in simpler terms: If you are planning a trip to an amazing destination and you will be staying there for eternity, do you think it would be wise to learn the language? Many of us find a translation app or a Berlitz online course to learn a few words. 

 

So, if we look at the practice of tongues as just another language, I believe the stigma of tongues would fade, and we would be enticed to learn this heavenly language from the best teacher, God Himself. 

 

If this gift of tongues is a language from God and He is love… this language must be the language of love… 

 

From experience, I know that when I feel his presence, I do not want Him to leave, and I am willing to speak any language that would convince Him to stay.… So, speak to me. Teach me this language of LOVE… 

 

And those truly blessed with any of His gifts are not out of their mind… Perhaps they are just in His presence.

 

It's Him, It's Always Him… 

 

So, if the whole church comes together and everyone speaks in tongues, and inquirers or unbelievers come in, will they not say you are out of your mind? 1 Corinthians 14:23

 

If anyone speaks in a tongue, two—or at the most three—should speak, one at a time, and someone must interpret. If there is no interpreter, the speaker should keep quiet in the church and speak to himself and to God. 1 Corinthians 14:27-28

Immortal

Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever hears my word and believes him
who sent me has eternal life.
John 5:24

Immortal is listed six times in the KJV Bible. 

 

Meaning of Immortal living forever, never dying or decaying: “Immortal souls inhabit our mortal bodies."

 

Immortal truly does not seem to be a popular word in the Bible. It is only used approximately six times. The word immortal draws us into unfamiliar territory.  

 

When we speak of immortality, it seems we tend to think of Hollywood’s vision instead of the true essence of the word. To live forever in a spiritual realm can be a scary thought! 

 

Hollywood seems to depict the darker side of immortality. However, I see it as a beautiful promise. When I think of immortality, my heart and vision drift to the man who defies all logical thinking. He has shown us the deepest, most important vision of immortality. 

 

He gave us hope; He has shown us the greatest LOVE ever known to mankind! During this amazing moment in time, He offered Himself as a sacrifice, thus giving us a visual of His love and the promise of immortality. This visual points us to and gives us confidence that one day we will walk with Him in paradise.  

 

This promise unveils our Soul's purpose on earth and in heaven. Our soul inhabits our earthly body to embrace a life of learning.  We are to share its beauty and His love with others. Until that pivotal day that we all must face transitioning to another life. I do believe it is human nature to want to hold on to hope that the very essence of who we are will never perish.  

The biggest questions are: Is there really a spiritual realm? And do we truly know where our journey might take us? Not knowing where you will be for eternity can be a daunting thought. However, there is a beautiful promise of eternity.  


Our Heavenly Father gave us many tools to help us find our way. He gave us Jesus to illuminate our path and show us, by example, a travel guide called the Holy Spirit. He gave us a road map called the Holy Bible. And the beautiful news is, He even holds our hearts through the process...

 

If we embrace and use all the tools He has given us. It is not a scary journey.  It’s a beautiful gift of sharing eternal life with the most amazing Father, Son, and Holy Spirit we will ever have the privilege of knowing!! 

We can only pray that when that pivotal day arrives, our family and friends will know without any doubt that we made it home. 


Love without restraint. Celebrate LIFE. Be everything our Father knows we can be, and look to the beautiful promise of eternity.

 

“To them who by patient continuance in well-doing seek for glory and honor and immortality, eternal life:”

Romans 2:7 KJV

 

 “But is now made manifest by the appearing of our Savior Jesus Christ, who hath abolished death, and hath brought life and immortality to light through the gospel:” 2 Timothy 1:10

Blood


How much more, then, will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself unblemished to God, cleanse our consciences from acts that lead to death so that we may serve the living God! Hebrews 9:14... 


In the KJV, the word blood appears 447 times. The word bloody appears 16 times.

Meaning of Blood: the red liquid that circulates in the arteries and veins of humans and other vertebrate animals, carrying oxygen to and carbon dioxide from the tissues of the body:

To endure the most incredible pain humanly possible for a LOVE greater than one can ever describe. The very beat of our hearts depends on a life source rich with healing and cleaning properties.  What is this miracle substance, and how does it relate to the masterpiece we know as the Bible? It flows effortlessly through our earthly bodies from the beginning of time.  We cannot sustain life without it.

So how and why did Jesus give us such a precious, monumental gift?  The how breaks the heart of believers. To give this gift, He endured a torturous crucifixion. A punishment primarily reserved for the most vicious of male criminals. Why?  I don’t understand? He was innocent and so pure, so loving. 

To read the description of this vicious punishment wounds my soul and makes my heart bleed. It was torturous, inhumane, cruel, and humiliating. Even before the cross, His body began to shed blood. He wore a crown of thorns. He was beaten and whipped. Yet he never wavered or stopped His love flow for others... As he stumbled and traveled on the road we know as The Via Dolorosa, he carried the very cross that would hold His battered body.  I am sure His blood stained the journey to His date with destiny! 

Once he arrived at His destination, His Hands and Feet were nailed to the cross. Again, His blood spilled. There was no escape. His precious blood continued to spill. As he suffered. His breathing became labored. His heart struggled to keep the blood flowing.  Tears of blood were shed. His body pierced a final time. As he whispered, “It is finished.” The final drops of blood fell. Leaving His body void of life. The earth became dark. His mother wept. Her heart must have shattered! What a horrific sight. 

My heart hurts knowing the blood He spilled was for me. How, Why?  What kind of LOVE is this? It’s Holy, Royal, and the most beautiful sacrifice of LOVE we will ever grow to know. But why still baffles me?  I do not truly understand the ritual of cleansing sin by sacrificing a perfect lamb.  Our beautiful Savior? The reason given is for the atonement of our sins? No matter how insignificant we feel, our sins are? It’s a ritual that wounds my heart. To kill a living animal or a person just because people could not follow the rules and examples set by God. 

This ritual is from a time in our history when God felt it necessary to save the people He lovingly created. However, we fell short so many times. We let Him down 🩸. I by no means want to question God.  I am sure He knows why, and maybe it's not for me to fully understand the dynamics of a Blood Sacrifice.  I may not understand why. I can only LOVE Him for giving me the most beautiful gift I will ever grow to know! He gave me the gift of Him! All of Him, His Blood, His last breath, His Love!!  

It’s Him; it’s always Him!  

It’s the most amazing LOVE story ever told. 

I love those who love me, and those who seek me diligently find me. Proverbs 8:17

“In whom we have redemption through his blood, Ephesians 1:7

Wood

                         

And he saith unto them, follow me, and I will make you fishers of men. and I will make you fishers for men."

  Meaning of wood: a hard-fibrous material that forms the main substance of the trunk or branches of a tree or shrub, used for fuel or timber:


There are 72 verses in the Bible about wood. 

Being distracted by our world ... Makes us drift into thought and some of us begin to question life a little deeper.

However, I am a firm believer that idle hands leave our imagination running rampant.  As many of you know I started a word study 4 years ago, and it has brought me on the most amazing journey.

That being said, I began to share my thoughts with a friend who mentioned that she might busy her hands by sanding wood to make tables. And that is how the quest to learn more about the word wood and the study sprouted and began to grow. 🌱 .. I started to think of all the things we use wood for today, buildings, fire, furniture. But then my mind drifted to this question, where does this product we take for granted come from? Easy answer trees, plants, vines! They are all a such beautiful gifts from God.  They supply food but more importantly, they manufacture the very air we breathe... So, what does this amazing creation have to do with the Bible? I discovered, one of the most prominent trees in Jerusalem, when Jesus walked upon the earth, was the olive tree. Did you know the Life Span of Olive trees can be 1,500 years, but the average lifespan is 500 years? That is a wow? 

So where and who used this precious commodity? How did the men of that time build such amazing things from wood? They were not draftsmen? They had no computers? They had no state-of-the-art tools? So how? It can boggle our minds when we think about it? They were simple carpenters with rudimentary tools! I am sure they treasured and could see the beauty in the wood they used. There are a few stories that came to light during this study. Noah and his Ark, The Ark of the Covenant was made by many craftsmen, but they all had one common factor, all of their creations had been made under the direction of God Himself. He gave them precise measurements and directions. How else could they have created such wonders? But the greatest wonder God orchestrated was the creation of his only begotten son 
Jesus. I stand in awe of how He created such a precious life. A life that has touched so many lives in such a significant way. Including mine!! 🥰 Have you ever questioned why he was born to a carpenter? I have? And feel, as a young man he had to develop his skills to understand life on earth.  During this learning experience, he used his hands with great precision and strength. He worked at it until he became a master at his craft.  
Because his father knew He needed to grow and understand how to make something beautiful from a simplistic beginning...  His life is a testimony to these skills. The most precious gift He made, He made with His own blood sweat, and tears. This gift was given to us on a simple piece of blood-stained wood.  It’s a gift of LOVE that goes far beyond that simplistic piece of wood that we remember as the symbolic cross ... It is the richness of His (vine) breath that sustains Life. His LOVE and Life are truly the greatest love story ever told.  It’s Him, It’s always Him!  I will never look at a simple piece of wood the same ever again.  

“Jesus said, ‘I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener.”
John 15:1 EASY

“Then the trees said to the vine, “Come and be our king”.”
Judges 9:12 EASY

“God is the Lord. This is what he says. He is the God who created the skies. He hung them up like a curtain. He made the shape of the whole earth. He made everything that grows in it. He gives air to its people so that they can breathe. And he has given a spirit to everyone who walks on the earth.”saiah 42:5 EASY

LOVE (AGAPE) ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

                      Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is Love" 1 John 4:8

The English word love can be found 311 times in the King James Bible. 

Meaning of love; an intense feeling of deep affection:

There are so many types of LOVE that we can experience in a lifetime... Before we are even born, we are loved unconditionally.   Then if we are lucky, we are born to loving caring parents who love us as we grow... This is a love that never ends even if one must leave this earth the LOVE remains ... 

As adults we find we love others, in different ways. There is a love of a spouse, there is the love of parents, there is the love of our children, there is the love for special friends. We fall in love with all of these amazing souls... They all have blessed our lives and filled our days and our nights with a beautiful song of love that we can return. It’s a love that we can count on... This love is caring, this love is nurturing, this love warms our hearts and gives us a purpose in this life. 

But when you find the Love of God... It will leave you in awe. It will leave you speechless. It can take you from 0 to 60 in just seconds. It will tap into your unknown emotions and place you in unfamiliar territory. It will make you stretch and find your God-given gifts. This love contains such beautiful healing properties. It is like nothing else on earth, nothing else can compare.  It is the most amazing love of the heart and soul that one can ever experience. It makes your life rich with love for others. It makes you see life as never before. It's an amazing state of completeness. It's a feeling of home and oneness. I have been blessed to feel His love. He can bring out miraculous changes within the very core of who you thought you were. He will prime you for the world to see the true essences of who He knows you can be. These changes do not happen overnight. They can take years to come full circle. But we have His promise that he will be with us every step of the way.    

As I travel on this journey, I realized that this LOVE is the same unconditional love I felt before I was even born. There and then is when your spirit truly understands the magnitude of this gift. It has been God’s Love that you have felt guiding your life all along. The difference now is that you have found the freedom in your heart to love
Him back... 

That my friend is where the sweetness of His LOVE can be truly felt. That is where the music can be truly heard and where the beauty of life truly exists... 

Because He is the ultimate gift of LOVE! 

It’s him ... it’s always him 

“‘Before I form thee in the belly, I have known thee; and before thou comest forth from the womb I have separated thee, a prophet to nations I have made thee.’”Jeremiah 1:5 YLT

“You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind'  Luke 10:27 

“Behold, the heaven and the heaven of heavens is the Lord's thy God, the earth also, with all that therein is.”Deuteronomy 10:14 KJV

Circle


"Even the seasons form a great circle in their changing, and always come back again to where they were.  The life of a person is a circle from childhood to childhood, and so it is in everything where power moves." ~ Black Elk.. 


The meaning of circle: A round plane figure whose boundary (the circumference) consists of points equidistant from a fixed point (the center). A group of people with shared professions, interests, or acquaintances. Move all the way around (someone or something), especially more than once.

 

The word circle is in the Bible approximately 7 times. 

 

As I studied this circular word. I kept hearing the Lion King lyrics dance in my head. Here are just a few lines I thought were interesting. 

 

From the day we arrive on the planet
In the circle of life
It's the wheel of fortune
It's the leap of faith
It's the band of hope
'Til we find our place
On the path unwinding
In the circle, the circle of life

 

What is the circle of life?? How broadly does it go? Does it ever end?

 

Have you ever given that any thought? Who were we before we were born? A special child-like spirit in God's Kingdom? We are His children? So where do we reside before we are born? 

 

The vastness of these thoughts will always puzzle our human mind. We will always have many unanswered questions while we are held captive in our human state. But let’s try to step out of our human restraints and become spiritual thinkers.

 

I will share my thoughts, I do believe we start our existence as a spiritual child of God. He loves each one of His children. He made us so we could experience life on earth. So on that pivotal day on the calendar, we call our birthday.  He gently whispers in our ear go my beloved child. Go to your earthly parents and show the world who you are. You are my bright shining star. Make your mark and live a beautiful life. And as that child leaves for his or her earthly destination. A tear rolls down our Creator's face because He knows He will miss His Child with all His heart and can only watch us grow from a distance. He knows the many trials we will need to face to learn and grow. He has promised to never leave us. 

 

However, as we grow our parents will love us. They will be there for all our successes and trials. Our memory of our heavenly Father seems to take a distant place in our memory. The days slip away, as each year passes.  As we become seasoned adults, life continues to travel by more rapidly with each waking moment. And as we grow some will become curious and search for answers about their heritage in heaven. They will feel their Heavenly Father's presence. Some will be late bloomers. Some may not search at all which is a sad thought. 

 

But what happens when we are nearing the end of what we know as life on earth.. ?? Do we return to God's open arms as His spiritual Child. Do we come full circle? Is this the circle of life… If so, the circle of life must be spiritual in nature. Because the life we know on earth has an expiration date. But our souls will feel that pull to return to our first love. 

 

It's Him, It's always Him! 

 

When we are given the gift of coming full circle. We will know in our hearts and will appreciate where we came from, where we have been, where we are.. and who we have become… It’s a gift from our heavenly Father. To be soulfully loved beyond our human understanding. Coming full circle is not a physical location but a beautiful spiritual journey of life. 

.

 “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you; I appointed you a prophet to the nations.” Jeremiah 1:5

And the dust returns to the earth as it was, and the spirit returns to God who gave it. Ecclesiastes 12:7 

God’s angel sets up a circle of protection around us while we pray. Open your mouth and taste, open your eyes, and see how good God is. Blessed are you who run to him. Worship God if you want the best; worship opens doors to all his goodness. Psalm 34:7-9 

 

He has inscribed a circle on the face of the waters at the boundary between light and darkness Job 26:10

When he established the heavens, I was there; when he drew a circle on the face of the deep Proverbs 8:27

 

 “But concerning that day or that hour, no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. Mark 13:32

Speak

"God's words speak to your soul with a love language that does not need a translator."(lg)


The meaning of the word Speak is defined as to say words, talk, or verbally deliver a message. 

 

The word speak is mentioned 513 times in the KJV Bible. 

 

Speaking is such an interesting activity that seems so simple until we are faced with losing our voice. 

 

Each utterance starts with a breath. The airflow from the lungs to our larynx (known as our voice box) in our throat.  The vibration then forms sound through the mouth and nose. 

 

What I then found fascinating is how many languages there are around the world. It truly is mind-boggling when you break it down and think about it. Did you know that there are approximately 7,111 known languages spoken by people around the world? That is a wow! 

 

So where did they all start? I am finding the Bible to be a wonderful guide to many of our questions. And as we open this amazing book. In the verse John 1:1, we see... “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” 

 

“God said” two of the most powerful words ever spoken.  These two words also show us just how powerful the spoken words can be.  All of creation started with the spoken word. The power of His words can blow our minds. 

 

But as I closed my eyes and quiet my mind these thoughts began to dance through my head.  It’s here the word speak takes on a new meaning...I do not need my voice box. I speak to My Father, My Yeshua, and My Holy Spirit with my mind, my soul, and my heart.... without the utterance of a single word. How does this happen?? Is this considered spoken words? 

 

It is a language that soothes my heart ... and it brings peace and unexplainable love to my soul.  It’s amazing when I think of God's voice.  I have read and I do believe His words hold tremendous power. A power like we have never seen. 

 

But my heart hears His beautiful soft loving whispers. I feel His love in His words. I have a hard time with the Scriptures that say we should fear Him. I know in my mind that is true. But in my heart, I have grown to know Him. He possesses the most genuine loving understanding heart.  It's like one I have never known. He is such a beautiful gentle soul. He is Kind. He loves us with no boundaries.  He has no hidden agenda.  His love language is spoken in every language known to mankind... Who else can make that claim?  Wow! 

 

I do believe as you began to hear Him speak to your heart your life takes on new meaning. Your thoughts and actions began to change. You strive to become a better person.  You want to please Him with your behavior. You see Him as your role model for living life in abundance.  I think as you move towards Him, fear lessens. Because there is a spiritual bond that is being built. There is happiness that happens when you hear His voice. His words speak to your soul with a love language that does not need a translator. Because it’s uniquely developed between you and your Creator ... It is felt in the deepest chambers of your heart..  As He inscribes His name upon you your heart. You feel Him watching you develop into the person He intended you to be... 

 

We are all a work in progress and He does speak to our hearts ... It becomes a question of just how fast do you run to His arms?  That is the part that is in our control.  If I say on your mark, get set .... go.  Do you sprint with the speed to win the race? Do you pace yourself for the long haul? Or do you walk? Or do you sit on the sideline watching? He is waiting at the finish line. This race is the race of a lifetime. ... Are you ready to win first place ??🥇Eternity. 

 

It’s Him. It’s always Him. 


“In the silence of the heart, God speaks. If you face God in prayer and silence, God will speak to you. Then you will know that you are nothing. It is only when you realize your nothingness, your emptiness, that God can fill you with Himself. Souls of prayer are souls of great silence.” Mother Teresa

In the beginning, was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him, and without him was not anything made that was made. John 1:1-3

A Callous Heart

Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.

4 Luke 6:35 ..


When someone is not thoughtful and opens a wound in the heart of another and selfishly turns away.  Are they so self-absorbed they can not see the injury they cause or does it go much deeper? Turning away no matter the reason is callous and does not diminish the action that caused the pain. It does not make the pain nonexistent. It can actually make the wound deeper and takes the wound longer to heal.  Turning away is something I will never understand ??? I hope and pray that I could never be that person. My heart would not allow my mind to rest knowing I caused anyone that kind of pain.💔


Jesus knows this kind of pain, He personally has felt the anguish that this type of action causes.   He trusted 12 men that walked the earth with Him.  They all professed to love Him and they all acted like his friend. Callously one by one they all turned away. leaving Him to stand alone in His darkest hour and yet ... HE LOVED  them anyway...  His strength along with his indescribable LOVE for us reaches far beyond heaven and earth. This kind of  LOVE  boggles my mind and leaves me standing in awe... I cried out, please teach me how to love like you do.

 

My Fathers love and time have taught me when your heart is wounded by someone and you can find it in your soul not to callously respond.  But, instead, you reach out and offer them your unconditional love, expecting nothing in return...   That my friend is how and when the greatest internal transformation of your heart occurs. The chains are broken, the wounds heal, and you are freed to experience the most incredible unselfish love known to mankind! You will be filled with an unexplainable peace in your heart and a deep understanding that will soothe your soul. It's amazing!


Our Father will always welcome us with the warmth of his open arms, he will never turn us away .. NEVER ...  He WOWs me!!! 😍


Its Him, Its always Him

 

Please watch the video

 

 

🙏 My Prayer 🙏

 

Life on earth can change in the blink of an eye. So, I ask our Father to guide us in this troubled world.. Help us be filled with his light, allowing us to show his love, compassion, kindness, and forgiveness to anyone that may cross our path. If we can help touch one hurting heart and let them know, It's going to be OK our father is a great healer of hearts..  He is the prince of peace. He offers us, unconditional LOVE. All we need to do is open our hearts to him. And his LOVE will take us on the most incredible journey of our LIVES.  

 

I am grateful for you!

Fragmented



 Meaning of Fragmented adjective. reduced to fragments. existing or functioning as though broken into separate parts; disorganized; disunified: a fragmented personality; a fragmented society.

 

The word fragment is in the Bible approximately 17 times. 

 

Do we live a fragmented life? When I see the word fragmented my mind drifted here… Pieces of broken glass.. all different shapes all different colors … Most of us would not think twice about just throwing them out. 

 

Do we treat the other things in our lives the same as this shattered glass? Do we treat relationships that are shattered the same? Do we treat our broken hearts the same? Do we treat our relationship with God the same? 

 

Or do we use the gifts our Creator gave us? Have we learned anything from our mentor and teacher Jesus? But you say what can you do with that shattered glass? Glue it? It will never be the same? It has lost the beauty it once had? 

 

I say If we can train ourselves to see the beauty in each piece. If we can see its value. With Love and care, we can bring the pieces together and build a beautiful kaleidoscope of color. It has all the same pieces but has a new start and a new look. It’s is to be held up and admired. And you will find when positioned just right the light shines through and captures the fragments of its true beauty. 

 

I do feel we are made up of fragments of our true selves… We hide behind many shades of color… We just need someone to hold us with loving care. And when positioned just right the light will shine through and capture the fragments of our true beauty.

 

I find this happens when we allow our teacher Jesus to hold us and as we gather the fragments of the shattered pieces … He teaches us how to shine His beautiful light and we become a kaleidoscope of beautiful color.  He is the master of creating beauty out of fractured lives.

 

Its Him, Its always Him 

 

He is the GLUE to life. 


Moreover, the light of the moon will be like the light of the sun, and the light of the sun will be seven times brighter, like the light of seven days, in the day that the LORD binds up the fracture of his people, and heals the wound they were struck with. New Heart English Bible Isaiah 30:26
