{Happy Friday Beautiful People} I hope you took the time to read over Psalm 23 for yourself, if not I highly encourage you too:) This song has been stuck in my head all week and it is completely based off of Psalm 23. It's too good to keep it to myself. I hope you all have a lovely Friday and remember to be refreshed in Jesus. At the end of the week we often crash so fall into the arms of our amazing shepherd as you end your week. OH and don't forget to take a sabbath, they are great, I look forward to mine every week! God is continuously teaching me to rest and this week he has physically reminded myself too. I spent a couple hours in the health center yesterday learning that yet again I sprained my ankle. Ha I guess I'll be taking a break from running and such but I honestly don't mind all that much:) Rest well brothers and sisters!
This week in Bible Study we discovered how many actions God takes to love us . We were in Psalm 23 and saw that David made some bold statements with God's many bold actions.   1 The Lord is my shepherd , I lack nothing . 2  He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, 3  he refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths for his name's sake. 4  Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil , for you are with me ; your rod and your staff, they comfort me. 5  You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies.

sacrificial love & undeserving grace

  I wonder by Leeland My dad and I have always had the same taste in music and we often share our music with each other. We both enjoy the band Leeland and I have been listening to this song on repeat. The words are so powerful and hit me every time.  Jesus Christ You bled Your love, laid down Yourself And gave me life In naked shame You hung and You were lifted high Here I lay in awe and wonder I am afraid For no one’s ever sacrificed and loved me this way So on my face I fall under Your heavy grace Here I lay in awe and wonder And I wonder God's grace and his sacrificial love completely blows my mind. I'm so grateful yet I'm probably not thankful enough for all that His has done for us and what He is currently doing through us. I encourage you to rest in His grace this week. Remember that you are God's beloved.
