embark

I am about to embark on my Asia trip to Taiwan and to a creative access country.  The time I had away in Bennett Springs was restful as I enjoyed just being with the Lord.  The theme of my four days at Bennett was inspired by Isaiah 30:15 — in returning to Me and rest you shall be saved; in quietness and trust is your strength.

One of the mornings as I was reading, the author referred to this verse.  I was encouraged. Then Stephanie, one of my daughters, responded to a text of mine with the very same verse.  I called her and asked her why she chose that verse.  She said, it just came to her.  I was so stirred.  The Lord was speaking to me — for me to just be in fellowship with Him, to enjoy Him and His handiwork all around me ... and to trust Him!

God is personal and wants to be personal with each one of us.  Oh, I pray that I travel and serve WITH Him while I am in Asia!

shalom,
