“The path of the righteous is level;
you make level the way of the righteous.
In the path of your judgments,
O Lord, we wait for you;
your name and remembrance
are the desire of our soul.
My soul yearns for you in the night;
my spirit within me earnestly seeks you.
For when your judgments are in the earth,
the inhabitants of the world learn righteousness. “
Isaiah 26:7-9
What beautiful words! Thank you for sharing.
Thanks Barbie; this is one of my all-time favorite books/authors and Scripture verses. I’m glad you were encouraged! Bless you.
Amen Marty…it’s a blessed thing to be in that place locked in the embrace between Spirit and Truth!
To worship God is Spirit and Truth…there lies our life source. Beautiful verses to think on this morning!
Oh the quote from John Elderidge…so beautiful! Wow! Pinning this! Thank you!
Yes Lindsey! Truth is this book (as I mentioned in other replies) is life changing in the way we view ourselves and God and the desires within us…which are GOOD until they get placed upon wrong things. I hope you will read the book. Great stuff.
This is lovely. I’ve never read anything by John Eldredge. Thank you for sharing these words.
Thank you so much. This book, “The Journey of Desire” has probably been one of the top 10 most life-altering (or as JenKenDean would say Altar’ing) books I’ve ever read. Catalyst for life and heart healing change. You really should read it!
