Good morning to my Freedom Fighter family. I love that you have taken the step to journey with us each day, Monday through Friday.
I read today’s entry in one of my favorite devotionals, MEET ME IN THE MEADOW. I love Roy Lessin’s creativity, and what a great reminder of our great God:
God identifies:
- With the GARDENER, for He planted the garden where man first lived;
- With the ARTIST, for He paints every sunrise and sunset;
- With the ASTRONOMER, for He placed the moon and sun in the heavens and named all the stars;
- With the WRITE, for He wrote a book of remembrance, and love letters to His people;
- With the SINGER, for He joys over His people with singing;
- With the MUSICIAN, for He places songs and melodies of praise in our hearts;
- With the BIOLOGIST, for He knows our frame and has knit our parts together;
- With the ARCHITECT, for He has designed the universe and everything that is in it;
- With the PHYSICIST; for He sustains and holds all things together;
- With the BUILDER, for He has built many mansions;
- With the DOCTOR, for He is the healer, and life and death are in His hands;
- With the POLITICIAN, for He rules over all;
- With the RANCHER, for He owns the cattle on a thousand hills;
- With the ACCOUNTANT, for He records the treasures that are being laid up in heaven;
- With the SOLDIER, for He is the mighty warrior and defender;
- With the TRAVELER, for the clouds are the dust of His feet;
- With the ATHLETE, for He is triumphant over all;
- With the POLICEMAN, for He guards and protects His people;
- With the LAWYER, for He as said, “Come let us reason together”;
- With the PHILANTHROPIST, for He is the provider of all our needs;
- With the PHILOSOPHER, for with Him are all the issues of life;
- With the ORATOR, for His voice is as the sound of many waters;
- With the PARENT, for He is the Father of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named;
- With the COUNSELOR, for His is familiar with all our ways and guides those who follow Him;
- With the PASTOR, for He has a shepherd’s heart and tenderly cares for His sheep;
- With the LISTENER, for He is attentive to our prayers;
- With the DEVOTED, for He has loved us with an everlasting love;
- With the GIVER, for He freely gives us all things to enjoy;
- With the sufferer, for His Son was a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief;
- With the MOURNER, for He witnessed the death of His Son upon the cross;
- With the JOYFUL, for He celebrates each time a lost child returns;
- With the WEDDING PLANNER, for He has set the date when His Son shall wed His bride.
