Your light will break forth like the dawn,
your healing will quickly appear;
then your righteousness will go before you,
and the glory of the Lord will be your rear guard.
Then you will call, and the Lord will answer;
you will cry for help, and he will say: Here am I.
Isaiah 58:8-9
I am thankful that God says HERE AM I.
I am thankful that I can kneel.
Hey God, I feel utterly helpless right now. There are so many things out of my control. They leave me reeling.
All I can do is get on my knees. I want to wear them out. I called to you and I can be assured that you heard me.
You will be my rear guard. If I stumble, if I fall backwards, if I am reeling you are right behind me to catch my fall. You will ease me back to standing. You will make my footsteps firm.
The very second I call to you.
Here am I. Here am I. Right here: in front of you, behind you and all around you.
You NEVER leave my proximity ~

I’m logging on here so I can comment on Amy’s blog. Be back soon…
not working. grrr. apparently I don’t own that identity!
Ok. I’m back. Sorry about that. You can tell I don’t really comment much on other people’s blogs. (do you feel honoured?)
Hope you don’t fall backwards too much this week. Glad we have a great God who can be with us through it all.
I am honored! What would I do without Diane? We need your wise and caring heart! I am glad we have a great God too. Computers make me angry sometimes too. I always pretend I’m going to smash it to bits 🙂 It would feel so good…
I love this post!!! I always doodle on my homework assignments and the word I have been doodling lately is “kneel”. It is so easy for me to forget to kneel sometimes, but then I remember how powerful it truly is.
I love it Ellie, that’s awesome. It is so powerful. I was a doodler in school too 🙂 Only my drawing is not very good…
I love this!
