Listen with Windows Media Player Plug-in "The earth shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord, as the waters cover the sea." (Isaiah 11:9) THE MEADOW OF HEAVENLY RAIN In a meadow beyond the forest floor, The seed runs about and sings, "God, let the Glory pour." The former and the latter rain is falling all the while, The Lord watches the children, on His face a wondering smile. "I wonder why they try so hard," He says, "for something they possess? When will they stop and see that I'm right here and quit this endless quest?" The rain falls in the meadow but doesn't penetrate the shell Of the busy seed who's praying, "Oh, Lord when will you fill?" "I'm right here inside of you," the Glory tells them once again, "You can not earn my holiness or get it from a friend. All the rain you ever need is at the flowing brook Right here inside of you, My child, if you care to look." The rain continues falling in the meadow by the forest floor, The Father waits and watches for an open door. The church cried out, "Oh Father, fill our hungry souls," As they run here and there looking for One who knows. "Be still and know that I am He, be still and let the river flow, Stop and dissolve the hardened shell so the seed can grow." I hear the seed still singing, "Oh let the river flow," I watch the strands of time twist and turn deep within my soul. The watcher wonders how much longer as the months and years rush by~ The heart of man cries out for a crop as Jesus gently sighs. Poets write, dreamers dream, Glory falls and seeds run all around, The Father waits and watches for the fruitful field of His ground. End times knocking at the door, prophecy flows ever on~ A dying world can't hear it's cry or see how much life is gone. The still, small voice, keeps calling in the meadow just down the way, It's time, my friend, for us to listen and put the busyness away. Time to quit running here and there and chasing after man, Show us what to do here in the final days and nights, Show us how to receive the raining Glory and to take to flight. "Oh, come fly away with Me. I'll lift you on the holy wind~ Be still and know that I am He and we will be one again." ~© ~ Pat Worrell, Author~ FEAR NOT FEAR NOT, FOR I AM WITH THEE, BE NOT DISMAYED, FOR I AM THY GOD. I WILL STRENGTHEN THEE, YEA, I WILL HELP THEE, I WILL UPHOLD THEE WITH MY RIGHT HAND OF RIGHTEOUSNESS. (ISAIAH 41:10 kjv) Dear friend, Now we all get tired at times, and feel that we can't possibly go on. When that happens remember that God's power and strength never diminishes, and He is never too tired or busy to help His children. He is always there for us, and: HE GIVETH POWER TO THE FAINT, AND TO THEM THAT HAVE NO MIGHT HE INCREASETH STRENGTH. EVEN THE YOUTHS SHALL FAINT AND BE WEARY AND THE YOUNG MEN SHALL UTTERLY FALL, BUT THAY THAT WAIT UPON THE LORD SHALL RENEW THEIR STRENGTH, THEY SHALL MOUNT UP WITH WINGS AS EAGLES, THEY SHALL RUN AND NOT BE WEARY, THEY SHALL WALK AND NOT BE FAINT. (ISAIAH 40:29-31) So, when you feel life's problems overwhelming you, and you feel that you cannot go another step, don't give up. Remember that you can count on God for added strength, and remind yourself, I CAN DO ALL THINGS THROUGH CHRIST WHICH STRENGTHENETH ME! (PHILIPPIANS 4:13) Amen! Have a wonderful day, my dear friend, and know that you are always in my prayers! ~Daily Encounter~ submitted by Karen King~ Page 1 Page 2 Page 3 Page 4 Page 5 Page 6 Page 7 Page 8 Page 9 Page 10 Bible Study Pages Edited and Updated: April 24, 2008
