You may have noticed that I have shared several times that the pictures I post were taken when I was on a walk. My walking time is special time I share with God. I choose to listen to Christian music as I walk. Sometimes I talk and God listens. Sometimes God talks and I listen. While I walk I try to look at the scenery around me through new eyes. Usually I travel the roads by car so traveling on foot gives me a new perspective and I am able to notice things I may not usually see. For example, this lone flower which made me think of Isaiah 40:8 that I posted in the picture.

On this Thankful Thursday I am overwhelmed with thanksgiving for the love, comfort and strength God gives me through Scripture. Earlier this week I asked if you had scriptures memorized to rely on in times of need. This morning as I was reading, I continued to read all of Isaiah 40 which brought me to my life verse Isaiah 40:31. As I read, I was reminded of how many times God has provided for me through this scripture and I gave thanks that:

“The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of our God endures forever.””
‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭40:8‬ ‭NIV

Today I ask you to call on your favorite scripture again. As you recall the word of God, be comforted and draw strength with the knowledge that no matter what happens around us, “the word of our God endures forever”and then give thanks.
