As I begin to write this blog on this day April 18th, I can't help but be reminded of the personal significance it has for me. On this day my parents were married, not only this, but what stands out most, is the date and more specifically the number. In the Hebrew language each letter has a numerical value and when I look at the number 18, I am reminded of the word it represents which is Life.
Life. WoW.
Today as I sit in my garden,on this early spring day, life is all around me in the sound of the birds. My favourite one of these is the red cardinal and he is flying from tree to tree circling my house, he seems to be singing me a song. For some he represents the presence of the Holy Spirit...and if it is so, then what is He singing over me?
Is He telling me: "Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat, or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns; and yet your Heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? Can anyone of you by worrying add a single hour to your life?
....But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness and all these things will be given to you as well....Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself."
Matthew 6:25-27,33,34
He adds 'this is your daily reminder!'
Thank you Lord...I say with a grateful and thankful heart.
Let's live in this place; and believe it when we say: ' No Worries!'
