In the book of Lamentations the writer speaks of the desolation of Jerusalem,
the beloved city. He says it is solitary and lonely. It was once full of people
and he likened it to a widow, who weeps bitterly in the night Lam 1:1,2
(amp).
He urges the people in captivity to 'recall and have
hope'. Lam 3:21. He says 'we are still
alive'. Because of God's mercy and lovingkindness, and His tender
compassions that do not fail they are not totally consumed. 'His
mercies are new every morning: great is your faithfulness'
3:23
The Lord is good to all those who wait on Him. Today is a
new day. Look for the Lord's love and His word to you today. He is speaking in
quiet ways through a still small voice. Maybe you have wept through the night,
feeling there is no hope. But God is saying 'today is a new day, because I am
faithful I will not abandon you, or leave you alone. It is not in my Nature to
forsake those who call on Me. I have heard your cries and will respond'
'I will never leave you, nor forsake you' Heb 13:5
'Be Still'
'Be Still And Know That He is God'
Symbolism: The Dove is the Holy Spirit. The shadow of wings is the covering of His love. The seat is a place waiting for you to occupy it. The Lily in the pool is the purity of Jesus.The trees are the 'Mighty One's' who watch over you.
YOU ARE INVITED TO ENTER IN!
There is a place, a tranquil, still place right in God's heart. He invites you to come and sit awhile and meditate, listening for His still small voice. Over you are the wings of God, shadowing and covering your life as you sit on the seat prepared for you. The world around is full of trauma and confusion, but in the midst of it all you can find Him and gaze awhile on His beauty and experience His peace.
