"Surely your goodness and unfailing love will pursue me all the days of my life..." Psalm 23:6




The melodious wind. The whimsical sound of greenwood trees dancing in an inviting garden. I feel at home in this serene place.  A long awaited settling has found its way into  my heart this morning. I can hear the faint celtic melodies from the kitchen and they remind me as I gaze outside the window that God himself has gently placed me here at this very moment in time.  I dreamed for 5 years of venturing over the great sea and being captivated by the Irish lands, learning the ways of this land, and feeling His heartbeat for it. What the Lord is reminding me this morning is how faithful He is and full of goodness and unfailing steadfast love. How detailed He is. He doesn't miss a thing. He knows what He is doing even if we don't always get it.


His goodness goes before and follows me throughout the day and in that I can be content and confident. Without knowing all the intricate details of the canvas, I can trust in the Artist who is painting a masterpiece for my life. As one of my favorite worship leaders  Kari Jobe sings.."I know that you are for me.." As Romans 8 proclaims that our Lord is for us.


Today, my heart is filled with that joy and hope just in that simple truth...He is for me. He filled with goodness and its a delight to God's heart to give good gifts to His children who delight in Him.  Zephaniah 3:17 says the Lord sings over us..I encourage you to let the Lord sing over your heart today...let Him remind you that He is for you and therefore who can be against you?
