The Work of God

"So we say to our souls, “Be still and know God”  Embrace the times - behold God and His ways.  Learn from Him, from His word,  from His Spirit, His people, His creation - we are instructed to know  the times and seasons."

Quoting from our last post we know it's not enough just to believe and be present in this season. We must also be busy doing--but doing what?

Journey to Behold the Bride


 


Before summer comes spring.
Spring is typically a time of anticipation and new beginnings - new beginnings loaded with God's potential that make all things new and good.  But for us and a few  other sojourners, the spring of 2014 was a time to die to self, and let go of the structure and form of church we had called “Home” for many years. This past springtime taught us first hand about the conditions and the cost needed for new life to begin.

This journey to behold the Bride begins in the summer.
It is a time in the natural where we see visibly the fulfilment of what spring had promised. Buds have opened up boasting the flower and fruit that had been waiting for just the right conditions to breakthrough and grow.  This is a delightful mystery that man has no part in, except to behold and marvel.
