encouragement

Sat with a sweet friend last night and talked life. I'm so thankful God has given us community to teach, challenge, encourage, grow, and live alongside of. We drank yummy berry drinks at Mama Carmen's Espresso Cafe and lost track of time. Encouraged to seek more of Jesus in Scripture, through prayer, confession, and challenged to understand what it looks like to fully receive His unconditional love & forgiveness, and find my security & satisfaction in Him alone. Whew. Will be thinking on these things for a while I'm sure.

"Is anyone thirsty? Come and drink--even if you have no money! Come, take your choice of wine or milk--it's all free! Why spend your money on food that does not give you strength? Why pay for food that does you no good? Listen, and I will tell you where to get food that is good for the soul! Come to me with your ears wide open. Listen, for the life of your soul is at stake. I am ready to make an everlasting covenant with you. I will give you all the mercies and unfailing love that I promised to David. " Isaiah 55:1-3
