Thursdays Before the Throne, & Our OUTSTANDING Case Worker!!!

Verses that touched my heart throughout our adoption process
(& speaking of adoption.......scroll to the bottom to see pics of me & the kids w/ our case worker-after you read my blog, of course! )

Psalm 61:2-8

2 From the end of the earth
I will cry to You,
When my heart is overwhelmed;
Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.


3 For You have been a shelter for me,
A strong tower from the enemy.
4 I will abide in Your tabernacle forever;
I will trust in the shelter of Your wings. Selah

5 For You, O God, have heard my vows;
You have given me the heritage of those who fear Your name.

6 You will prolong the king’s life,
His years as many generations.


7 He shall abide before God forever.
Oh, prepare mercy and truth, which may preserve him!


8 So I will sing praise to Your name forever,
That I may daily perform my vows.

The Rock that is higher than I.

Matthew 7:24-29
Jesus is speaking

Build on the Rock


24 “Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them,

I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock:
25 and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house;

and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock.
26 “But everyone who hears these sayings of Mine, and does not do them,

will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand:
27 and the rain descended, the floods came,

and the winds blew and beat on that house;

and it fell. And great was its fall.”
28 And so it was, when Jesus had ended these sayings,

that the people were astonished at His teaching,
29 for He taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes.

1 Corinthians 10:4….and that Rock was Christ.
