The Thousand Word Project - Wildly Blooming




Isaiah 35:1-2 The wilderness and the solitary place shall be glad for them; and the desert shall rejoice, and blossom as the rose. It shall blossom abundantly, and rejoice even with joy and singing: the glory of Lebanon shall be given unto it, the excellency of Carmel and Sharon, they shall see the glory of the LORD, and the excellency of our God.

My Soul Finds Rest In Jesus



If you don't have a mother here on earth, or if your mother was not a good mother...
Isaiah 49:15 Can a woman forget her sucking child, that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb? yea, they may forget, yet will I not forget thee. 
Isaiah 66:13 As one whom his mother comforteth, so will I comfort you; and ye shall be comforted in Jerusalem. 

My Soul Finds Rest In Jesus

My soul finds rest in Jesus,
I see His work is done ;
The Father hath declared Himself
Well pleased in His Son.

 I cast my care on Jesus,
For who so kind as He ?
No mother's heart has half the love
That Jesus bears to me.

I'll try to live like Jesus,
And do His Father's will;
Where'er he goes I'll follow him,
And He will keep me still.

I'll bring my friends to Jesus,
And bid them look and live;
I'll tell how free His mercy is;
How freely He'll forgive.

I sing the praise of Jesus,
It is a pleasant thing,
With grateful hearts to celebrate
The glories of our King.

I yield my all to Jesus,
And am supremely blest;
Yes! in the bosom of His love
Is my eternal rest.

from The Evangelist's Hymn Book, 1860

Hebrews 4:9 There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God.

1 Peter 5:6-7 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God,
that he may exalt you in due time: Casting all your care upon him; for he
careth for you.

Romans 6:13 Neither yield ye your members as instruments of
unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those
that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments
of righteousness unto God.

Evening Song - No One Ever Cared for Me Like Jesus


1 Peter 5:6-7 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time: Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you. 

John 10:11-14 I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep. But he that is an hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth: and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep. The hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for the sheep. I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine.

The Thousand Word Project - Robin's Egg Blue



[God] maketh the lilies to bloom in the field,
And shelters the bird in its nest;
He calleth the weary to come unto Him,
And find the sweet blessing of rest.

Word of the Day - Trouble


Word of the Day - 

Trouble

Job 34:29 When he giveth quietness, who then can make trouble? and when he hideth his face, who then can behold him?...

Job 38:22-23 Hast thou entered into the treasures of the snow? or hast thou seen the treasures of the hail, Which I have reserved against the time of trouble, against the day of battle and war?

Psalm 9:9-10 The LORD also will be a refuge for the oppressed, a refuge in times of trouble. And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee: for thou, LORD, hast not forsaken them that seek thee.

Though troubles assail us
And dangers affright,
Though close friends should fail us
And foes all unite,
Yet one thing secures us,
Whatever betide,
The promise assures us,
"The Lord will provide."

John Newton

Hebrews 13:16 But to do good and to communicate forget not: for with such sacrifices God is well pleased. 

Galatians 6:9-10 And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not. As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith.
