a confirmation...

wat a tough wk. apart from assuming command and gettin to know my boys, my tummy was moody for most of the time. Lost my appetite for food. Just eatin for the sake of nutrition. But anyway I thank God for helpin me endure a wk as such. And lookin forward to the days ahead. Drawing strength from His word as daily whenever my tummy hurts i pray for strength to endure. But yea if it still persists i noe wat to do.

anyway my main topic today was how this verse (Is 58:12) came to my heart and mind. It was a verse shared to me a long time back. A verse that person has held as a personal conviction of what God called the person to do. And surprisingly and amazingly this verse pop's up at a moment such as this to remind myself of the waters I've tasted and am thankful and blessed for it has given me life(John 4:4) as the previous verse prior to 12 is pretty similar to my life verse. And apparently I realised that indeed in my times of drought I've relied on Him to satisfy my soul. Even with the little I have I reli thank God for what He's done in my life and I'm blessed and over joyed tat I know some have also tasted the same water and are in themselves springing forth as a garden and a spring of water.

Is58:11-12
[11] And the LORD shall guide thee continually, and satisfy thy soul in drought, and make fat thy bones: and thou shalt be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters fail not.[12] And they that shall be of thee shall build the old waste places: thou shalt raise up the foundations of many generations; and thou shalt be called, The repairer of the breach, The restorer of paths to dwell in.

John 4:14
[14] But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.

It definitely is an encouragement and confirmation for me. And i dun wanna use this to boast or say I'm doin this for my sake or i'm better than anyone else or anythin. But rather I thank God for just being able to be his garden, his spring of water to those who are thirsty. And I'll continue to be His and be used by Him if He wants to. FOr this thirsty generation.

Anyway i guess now i finally understand wat it meant for tat person. Why the conviction of holding onto such wonderful verses. And I believe tat this is from Him. And no doubt no doubt tat was wat he wanted me to know. even if i reli din catch everythin in the walk through today but knowing abt this verses hv reminded me of the person who offered me the cup frm the same spring. How blessed I am that I took tat cup and am now holding out the cup to those who are thirsty. and I'm pleased to see the results. But I owe it more to Him than to myself because it could be anybody who could hv done the same. And now I'm prayin even more as I kp on being the spring of water and its free for all to draw becoz my spring draws its waters frm an eternal source....
