My mom emailed me these words the other day in response to the post I had written quoting Psalm 27:13-14...
"I looked up "wait for" in a lexical aid to the Old Testament and it says: To bind together (by twisting), to be gathered together, to be joined. I thought I remembered that was the meaning, because at one time in my life I needed to hear such words. I always believed that to wait for the Lord meant for me to hope, to trust, to be confident, to expect and it can mean that, but knowing that it also means to be joined with Him, actually twisted together gave me such a picture of the Lord being so close to me and that nothing was impossible with Him. That is my prayer for you and since you prayed, "Lord, help me to be consumed by You, and You alone", you are showing that is your heart's cry. I will be praying for the peace that passes all understanding as you are embraced by Him today and everyday."
That is my prayer for today...
That I would feel so close to the Lord that I actually feel twisted together with Him.
We are entering into the week of my cycle where I could potentially be consumed with, well a lot.
Praying to be clinging to the Lord and not my desires.
I am so grateful for a mom that constantly reminds me and encourages me to cling to the One true hope I have. I love you mom.
Patiently Praying.
Much Love-
Al
