I particularly like your following advice Beth;
ReplyDelete"Write down what God whispers during your prayer time."
A Very poignant & special activity to do with God during our time with Him.
Visiting from Joanne's linky otday where we're sitting together!
You're most welcome to join me in a cuppa at Tea With Jennifer.
Blessings, Jennifer
Jennifer, thank you so much for your very specific and encouraging response. Looking forward to linking with you too. Many blessings to you 💕
DeleteWhat a beautiful practice for quieting our soul and listening to God's whispers! Thank you, Beth for creating this! (BTW - I used your father's favorite song in my Lined with Praise story).
ReplyDeleteMaryleigh,
DeleteThank you so much for sharing the link to my post about my sweet Daddy on your Lined with Praise story. I have a PDF copy of the letters his family and friends wrote about him, if you would like me to email it to you. I can still hear his beautiful barione voice singing these lyrics straight to my heart:
“Without Him I could do nothing
Without Him I’d surely fail
Without Him I would be drifting
Like a ship without a sail
Without Him I would be dying
Without Him I’d be enslaved
Without Him life would be hopeless
But with Jesus, thank God I’m saved
Jesus, oh Jesus
Do you know Him today
Do not turn Him away
Oh Jesus, oh Jesus
Without Him how lost I would be.”
~ “Without Him”, Mylon Rae Le Fevre
What a wonderful resource, Beth! This is a good time of year to slow down and seek his face. I am grateful for you as you guide us into this!
ReplyDeleteStacey, thank you so much for your kind and encouraging comments. Many blessings to you and your family during this season!
DeleteOh Beth, you certainly have done your homework, your research, your pursuit of God. You are an inspiration to us all.
ReplyDeleteLinda, thank you so much for stopping by with such sweet comments. You are an inspiration to me and a wonderful encourager to me and so many others. Many blessings to you!
DeleteBeth, thank you for sharing this with us. Such a wonderful resource. I am featuring your post tomorrow at The Crazy Little Lovebirds link party.
ReplyDeleteWOW! Stephanie, thank you so much! What an honor and a privilege it is for you to feature my post on The Crazy Little Lovebirds link party! You are such a wonderful encourager to me and to so many others. Many blessings to you and your family.
DeleteIt's so helpful to have an intentional practice leading up to Easter. So often, it has been celebrated as a stand alone holiday which takes away from the drama of resurrection!
ReplyDeleteMichele, thank you so much for stopping by with your powerful and specific encouraging comments!
DeleteI will never forget the joy and delight I experienced when you wrote your outstanding review for my book, Name Above All Names Devotional: Focusing on 26 Alphabetical Names of Christ:
Review by Michele Morin: “The infinite variety in nature, the curious complexity of human behavior, the synchronicity of multiple systems in our own anatomy — and in the solar system — all point, through general revelation, to the nature of God: multi-faceted, magnificent, and yet mysterious. Special revelation in Scripture picks up where creation leaves off, and Beth Willis Miller has teamed up with artist Krista Hamrick to focus on twenty-six pieces of evidence in Name Above All Names Devotional: Focusing on 26 Alphabetical Names of Christ. The result is an alphabetical collection that resembles a twenty-six sided gem, each facet reflecting a slightly different hue of the nature of God the Son. From Alpha and Omega to King of Zion, each devotional highlights the Scriptural basis for the name in multiple translations and then provides commentary on the verses. Beth applies the truth and then invites her readers to join her in a prayer that turns the truth into a paean of praise. No mere academic exercise, the point of Name Above All Names Devotional is threefold:
Look up – Meditate on the name and what it reveals about the character of God.
Look in – I am propelled to ask galvanizing questions about my discoveries: “Because God is ___________________, I should therefore _______________.”
Look out – Let the nature of God impact on every relationship, for your good, and for His glory.
With full-color art work and space for notes, Name Above All Names Devotional is a treasure for devotional reading, a resource for serious study, and a thoughtful and inspiring gift for loved ones.” (review by Michele Morin))"
Thank you, again, for all these many years of powerful encouragment to me and so many others. Many blessings to you!
