faith.trees.dreams.life.continues.

I've been blogging a lot..but i have so much on my mind that i need to get out. just out of my head. in order to process it.

I have been reading Isaiah 61 over and over. Its sticking out to me. I am beginning to see a purpose for this time. this moment. this life. this love.

The Year of the Lord's Favor:
V.1-3.
The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is on me,
because the Lord has anointed me
to preach good news to the poor.
He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted,
to proclaim freedom for the captives
and release from darkness for the prisoners,
to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor
and the day of vengeance of our God,
to comfort all who mourn,
and provide for those who grieve in Zion-
to bestow on them a crown of beauty
instead of ashes,
the oil of gladness
instead of mourning,
and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair.
They will be called oaks of righteousness,
a planting of the Lord
for the display of his splendor.

V.10-11.
I delight greatly in the Lord;
my soul rejoices in my God.
For he has clothed me with garments of salvation
and arrayed me in a robe of righteousness,
as a bridegroom adorns his head like a priest,
and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.
For as the soil makes the sprout come up
and a garden causes seeds to grow,
so the Sovereign Lord will make
righteousness and praise
spring up before all nations.

Use me. send me. show me. i pray.
trust me. trust me. trust me. have faith in me. You say.
