I Love This


"Be brave.
Be strong.
Don't give up.
Expect God to get here soon."

Sometimes I really like how the Message translation brings out the Word. This is one of those times! Thanks for sharing it.

i LOVE that too. I've been shying away from the message for a long time... maybe it's time to give it a chance ;)

There is something about these words that just jump out and hold out hope to us. I love the way you live with expectation. Hosea 12:6 - Look to Him and expect HIM to do much in your life. He is! He is!

I really want to get a Message Bible. I love the translation, especially when I read my beloved NASB and then the Message. It just makes sense.

This is a great verse. Perfect for memorizing with the kids.

I've read your last few posts and understand completely where you are coming from. I sometimes struggle with consistentcy in my quiet times or sometimes I have a hard time retaining what I read. Thank you for discussing this on your blog.
