I LOVE how you paired that beautiful promise with that photo. beautiful.
wow! great photo for the verse!
Seeing your picture with the verse i remember a poem about God gui-DANCE us our whole life.....!
This is the poem...
GUIDANCE
When I meditated on the word guidance,
I kept seeing "dance" at the end of the word.
I remember reading that doing God's will
is a lot like dancing.
When two people try to lead,
nothing feels right.
The movement doesn't flow with the music,
and everything is quite uncomfortable
and jerky.
When one person relaxes and lets the other
lead, both bodies begin to flow with the music.
One gives gentle cues,
perhaps with a nudge to the back
or by pressing lightly in one direction
or another.
It's as if two become one body,
moving beautifully.
The dance takes surrender,
willingness, and attentiveness from one person
and gentle guidance and skill from the other.
My eyes drew back to the word guidance.
When I saw "G," I thought of God,
followed by "u" and "i."
God, "u" and "I" dance.
God, you, and I dance.
This statement is what guidance means to me.
As I lowered my head, I became willing to trust
that I would get guidance about my life.
Once again, I became willing to let God lead.

So very sweet.
Oh I love that verse! God showed it to me a few months ago when the economy started to destroy our
401K! He told me that he has carried me from before I was born. He will carry me through my gray hairs. It was such a wonderful mountaintop moment. I still get discouraged sometimes, but I know who holds my future!
very lovely WFW.
What a great comforting thought, and the best part, we know it is true, because our God is a God that keeps promises.
Have a blessed day!
Beautiful photo and promise.
Thanks for sharing.
Blessings,
Sherry

WFW Friends: Thank you all for stopping by today. Love you! :~D
i am mostly just fine with my single status... except when it comes to this. i love the idea of "mature love"... the thought of couples that have been together over the years and are withstanding the test of time. God is good♥
Sweet picture and a very encouraging verse ~
I love the promises we have in this scripture. Yes, with God at my side, I do look forward to those senior years!
