The Road to the 100-Fold Harvest

Psalm 126

A song of ascents!



When the Lord brought back His exiles to Jerusalem, it was like a dream!

We were filled with laughter, and we sang for joy.

And the other nations said, "What amazing things the Lord has done for them."

Yes, the Lord has done amazing things for us! What joy!

Restore our fortunes, Lord, as streams renew the desert.

Those who plant in tears will harvest with shouts of joy.

They weep as they go to plant their seed, but they sing as they return with the harvest.

Make a window!!!

The confinement exhausts you with the endless echo of self-absorption. ~Beth Moore (Get Out of that Pit devo day 4)

Many things can define a pit but self absorption has got to be the shovel for digging it deeper and deeper. Lord, give me a window and the heart to see outside my own disappointments and find ways to not only see others but minister to them.


To them God has chosen to make known among the Gentiles the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.
—Colossians 1:27

“I, the Lord, have called you in righteousness; I will take hold of your hand. I will keep you and will make you to be a covenant for the people and a light for the Gentiles.”
—Isaiah 42:6

Nehemiah said, “Go and enjoy choice food and sweet drinks, and send some to those who have nothing prepared. This day is sacred to our Lord. Do not grieve, for the joy of the Lord is your strength.”
—Nehemiah 8:10

May the God of your hope so fill you with all joy and peace in believing [through the experience of your faith] that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound and be overflowing (bubbling over) with hope.
—Romans 15:13 amp


Clearly, his word to me today is about looking past myself and being a blessing to those with whom I come in contact. ❤ Yessir. I will listen. I will trust. And I will obey.  And I am quite confident I will also find peace. 

I love you too!
