2 Samuel 23:2-7

These are King David's last words of delight & warning before building an altar to the Lord, charging his son Solomon 'to walk in His ways...' & dying after 40 years of rule over Israel.

David transformed from a boy shepherd into a great warrior leader by following & fearing God. A healthy sense of fear towards The Almighty & Incomprehensible is only natural. With his elaborate songs of praise, David shows that fear of the Lord culminates into awe & reverence when the personally loving force of God is wholeheartedly pursued.

Not without sin, David confesses his wrongs & accepts God's correction. All his protection, successes & gifts ('first light' & 'fresh rain' etc.), David repeatedly publicly expresses thanksgiving to God for with beautiful poetry. How cool would it be if today's leaders did this? David's 'entire salvation' is his every desire & promise fulfilled by God. Amen!

"For Thou art my lamp, O Lord; And the Lord illumines my darkness....The word of the Lord is tested; He is a shield to all who take refuge in Him."
(2 Samuel 22:29 & 31).

    God's Way...

    I am writing this blog to highlight Bible verses that I experience as especially healing and relevant for daily guidance. My journeys in life have been truly amazing. Chronic illness with ME/CFS, as difficult as it is, continues to take me wild and loving places for healing. 
     
    The illness flare up I experienced from 2019-2021 has lead me to stop working as a RMT, coach & tutor to focus on my own rehabilitation. While much of my identity & purpose,  wrapped up in work I absolutely love, is unraveling, I am becoming more clear this change is God’s Way of strongly nudging me yet again into a new creation & phase of alignment. Contending with an illness such as ME/CFS that currently has no treatment, strikingly reveals to me how precious energy is. Every bit of energy we are given is divine, coming directly from God who holds the reins, guiding each of us to use our energy wisely. Imagine holding the reins of nearly 8 billion free-willed humans!
     
    From necessity, curiosity and love, I'm orienting my energy to honor God by reading the Bible daily and listening carefully with all my senses. Being a Christian for nearly forty years, the Bible has always been special & important to me, but since 2020, the passages feel even more alive & meaningful - the Living Word of God truly is medicine when one's heart is open to it. Thank God, amen!
