Greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world. 1 John 4:4b
"I will pour out water upon the thirsty ground, streams upon the dry land; I will pour out my spirit upon your offspring, my blessing upon your descendants. They shall spring forth amid grass like poplars beside flowing waters. One shall say, "I am the LORD's," another shall be named after Jacob, And this one shall write on his hand, "The LORD's," and receive the name Israel." Isaiah 44:3-5
Isaiah 44:1-5 I am the Lord's. Who do you belong to? Or in this world you belong to no one and are throwing caution to the wind. Many are living life that way but I would rather belong to the Lord. Being in a dry and thirsty land can suck the life out of you but Jesus shows us by belonging to God the Father and trusting in Him, all is well. There is plenty of water to drink, there is peace, there is hope and there is life. "Thus says the LORD who made you, your help, who formed you from the womb: Do not fear, Jacob, my servant, Jeshurun, whom I have chosen." Isaiah 44:2 There is no better way to live, He has you. This was the journey Jesus as Son of Man was on, each day belonged to God the Father, Jesus accepted the outcome for they lived within the Covenant relationship. Even going to the cross, Jesus did not turn back or look for a way out, He lovingly trusted His Father. Who do you belong to? The choice is real easy, God is love, His rival, a dry and parched land!

What is God saying to me: Be still and know that I Am God, Jesus did.
Dear Lord God, I belong to You, each day we talk regularly and I know You have all under control. You teach me each day and show areas in need of improvement, I listen and respond. You also know some days are better than others, I thank You for Your loving kindness, there is always plenty of water when You live next to the stream. Prayers for people's being forced into lockdown, concerned about tomorrow, give them peace. Prayers for a friend whose family is experiencing Covid, give them peace. Thank You for another day to listen and learn, I ask this in Jesus's name, Amen.
Mary, Our Lady of Victory, Pray for us.
St Joesph, Model of Artisans, Pray for us.
