Lord I Want to Know You: Day 7

Lord I Want to Know You

crown, king of kings, noble, royal

Today KA continues the discussion of the awesome power of God, His supremacy over all, His Sovereignty.  Here is part  of what I wrote in my journal, para-phrasing the passage from 1 Samuel 2 (from page 20):

He has power over life and death. He sets people in the place of His choosing.  He has power over all circumstances. He  does exalt and protect the needy – not by might shall a man prevail – but only because the Lord decides. DO NOT contend  with the Lord…those who contend with the Lord will be shattered. (1Sam 2:6-10).

 I was going to look up the definition of “sovereign” to share at the beginning of this post but I see I did not need to – that passage pretty well covers it! Is there one verse that sums it up for you?  Share with us the words that resonate with you.                              

JustaGirl…just like you

When the first day of school is also the day your When the first day of school is also the day your firstborn drives herself to college, it’s a lot. We moved her stuff into her dorm last week. Today she got up early to say goodbye to Dad (too early! Not pictured 😂), her brother, her doggo, her piano, and her momma. Before she left, she made blueberry scones to share with her little bro @sjoshlafont —they homeschool and relocated together, went to @westminsteroakmtn together, and have shared a love of music, Legos, superheroes (and villains), Transformers, and so much more. She played my favorite song. She even made banana bread to bring to her new roomie. @graciethenerd You are my little nut brown hare, and I love you to the moon and back. Auburn University is a better place because you are there! ❤️

Also, so grateful for the wonderful school where she spent the last four years—the perfect place to land after years of homeschooling on the move. “For the LORD is good; his steadfast love endures forever, and his faithfulness to all generations.” (Ps 100:5) #curatingthegood #graduated🎓 #wisebeyondheryears @graciethenerd @lafonte04 @westminsteroakmtn
