"The Unseen"

"The Unseen" - Painting by Emily Ann Holuta
I want you to picture Jesus looking at you
 putting his hand under your chin 
and gently lifting it to his eyes and saying
 "look at my eyes"
"I care for you and will take care of you
- trust me:)"
When you hear the birds sing🐦
 know I gave them their song.
 When you see the lovely flowers 🌾
know I gave them their color and delicate petals.
When you look in awe at the mountains 🗻
and the sky 💫and the moon🌙
know I have placed them 
-just in the right spot just at the right time.
When you hear the ocean waves 🌊
and see the tide come and go
 and the sand stays and is not washed away
 know I have set the boundaries of the waves, 
so I surround you, very watchful,
 carefully guarding and keeping
 with the jealousy
 that your my own💜.

Psalm 23 (VOICE)

1 The Eternal is my shepherd, He cares for me always.
2 He provides me rest in rich, green fields
    beside streams of refreshing water.
    He soothes my fears;
3 He makes me whole again,
    steering me off worn, hard paths
    to roads where truth and righteousness echo His name.
4 Even in the unending shadows of death’s darkness,
    I am not overcome by fear.
Because You are with me in those dark moments,
    near with Your protection and guidance,
    I am comforted.
5 You spread out a table before me,
    provisions in the midst of attack from my enemies;
You care for all my needs, anointing my head with soothing, fragrant oil,
    filling my cup again and again with Your grace.
6 Certainly Your faithful protection and loving provision will pursue me
    where I go, always, everywhere.
I will always be with the Eternal,
    in Your house forever.

"...then Sings my soul...."

"Then sings my soul.....
Sing louder....
Wake up,my hope,
Sing of blessings to come!
Sing of how he helped!
Sing of the weary way...along which he has carried us..
.to green meadows and still waters.."

"..hope..."

"Hope can be placed anywhere we choose, 
but the place we choose makes all the difference.
When we place our Hope in Christ,we are delivered."

"like a tree planted by the waters..."

“But blessed is the man
 who trusts me, God,
    the woman who sticks with God.
They’re like trees replanted in Eden,
    putting down roots near the rivers—
Never a worry through the hottest of summers,
    never dropping a leaf,
Serene and calm through droughts,
    bearing fresh fruit every season.
Jeremiah 17:7-8 (MSG)
