Gratitude is the fairest blossom which springs from the soul.
~Henry Ward Beecher
I don’t think the way you think.
The way you work isn’t the way I work.”
God’s Decree.
“For as the sky soars high above earth,
so the way I work surpasses the way you work,
and the way I think is beyond the way you think.
Just as rain and snow descend from the skies
and don’t go back until they’ve watered the earth,
Doing their work of making things grow and blossom,
producing seed for farmers and food for the hungry,
So will the words that come out of my mouth
not come back empty-handed.
They’ll do the work I sent them to do,
they’ll complete the assignment I gave them.”
~Isaiah 55:8-11 (Message)
I can’t get past the photo and those first few words of scripture: “I don’t think the way you think…”
Thank God…
My thinking is so flawed. And yours is probably a better title. I was stuck on the blossom. 🙂
Also that His words do not come back empty.
Fascinating blossom, what is that? As Deidra said, So glad the Lord’s thoughts are not like mine, so glad we can be sure His ways are above and beyond ours.
I don’t know my trees. It’s the big tree behind the garage taken from my kitchen window. Some kind of maple?
thank you for this beautiful reminder. amen, and amen.
Wonderful colors in this. And the scripture is such a great promise to remember.
Love the photo. And the Word is also loverly, forever and ever….
Beautiful photo. Is this a tree or what?? Beautiful flowers. Love the verse!!
pretty photo
Wonderful… both picture and verse.
A beautiful bouquet of seeds ready to take flight? His ways are higher than ours. What comfort there is in that.
Gorgeous photo, and I enjoyed reading this familiar passage from The Message this time. Like others have said, that first line is powerful: I don’t think the way you think. Thank goodness!
I have always liked this scripture. Thanks for the reminder! 🙂
