And said, O my God, I am ashamed and blush to lift up my face to Thee, my God: for our iniquities are increased over our head, and our trespass is grown up into the heavens. –Ezra 9:6
Thus will I magnify Myself, and sanctify Myself; and I will be known in the eyes of many nations, and they shall know that I am the LORD. –Ezekiel 38:23
Thanks be unto God for His unspeakable gift. –2 Corinthians 9:15
But he that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord. For not he that commendeth himself is approved, but whom the Lord commendeth. –2 Corinthians 10:17-18

The verse from Ezekiel is particularly powerful to me. We serve an “I will” God – He tells us who He is and what He intends tk do, and then does just that (flawlessly, too). Thank you for sharing these wonderful verses! :)

Wonderful verses. Love the photos of water that you post. I have been reading Numbers in my Bible where God’s people are wandering in the wilderness for 40 years. Each time they anger God – it amazes me that they did that – and if not for Moses they would all have been destroyed. Sometimes I think even if we had a Moses today – people would still not do as God tells them to do in his Word. We let the world drag us away from serving God. I try very hard not to let that happen in my life. Thanks for posting all the great scripture from God’s word on your blog each day Margaret. :)

Peggy, thank you for such kind encouragement. :) Those pictures are from hikes we took on vacation. God is the most perfect artist there is! We talk about God’s people wandering and grumbling. Even after Moses would tell them if they didn’t stop God was going to do this or that, and after God would do exactly what Moses said He would, the next day, more grumbling. I always said, I would have learned (there I go judging) but would I? I mean they were right there seeing it with their own eyes and they didn’t. I would like to think, I would have submitted but of course, knowing my hard head maybe I wouldn’t have. LOL God Bless you Peggy and thank you for such a great insightful comment :)

I too would probably have been right there grumbling to Moses about something – because I also have a hard head! God bless you Margaret.
