God’s love, which is stronger than death, is causing me to continue walking the path of the mission the Lord has given me (John 6:1–15). “At that very time some Pharisees came and said to Him, ‘Leave this place and go somewhere else. Herod wants to kill You.’ He replied, ‘Go tell that fox, “I will keep driving out demons and healing people today and tomorrow, and on the third day I will reach My goal.” In any case, I must press on today and tomorrow and the next day—for surely no prophet can die outside Jerusalem!

Heart that is like a
thorny bush
My heart that is like a thorny bush [“my
complaint” (Ps. 142:2)],
when I find myself in a state of confusion, not
knowing where to start or what to do,
feeling overwhelmed and helpless in the face of
numerous difficult problems,
even in those moments of bewilderment,
I lift up my heart that is like a thorny bush to
my heavenly Father (v. 1).
When I pour out my heart to Him, expressing the
challenges and pains,
even the tangled threads of my life that I see
with my own eyes,
He, working all things together for good (Rom. 8:28),
weaves them into a masterpiece,
leading me forward to create a work of art in my
life.
With faith in His guidance, in patience and
endurance,
I am confident that I will witness the glory of
God unfold.
