Psalm 36:5-9 
Your unfailing love, O LORD, is as vast as the heavens; your faithfulness reaches beyond the clouds. 
Your righteousness is like the mighty mountains, your justice like the ocean depths. 
You care for people and animals alike, O LORD. 
How precious is your unfailing love, O GOD! 
All humanity finds shelter in the shadow of your wings. 
You feed them from the abundance of your own house, 
letting them drink from your river of delights. 
For you are the fountain of life, 
the light by which we see. (NLT)

What do you need that God is not? 

Nothing. 

Absolutely nothing. 

What do you need that God will not provide?

Same answers. 

These are good thoughts for our family. We are entering a season of transitions. These are good transitions. Lots of fun stuff is included. Even so, there is always stress related to change, no matter how good. 

This means this is a time to recall where we truly stand, what is most important, and how we should navigate these weeks and months ahead. 

This also means awakening on a Saturday morning to our Black Dog’s growling stomach and her gentle approach of encouraging me to fill her bowl with chewy delights. 

This also means awakening at almost the same moment to a list of ToDos from my bride, who is away at a conference and remembers what all needs to be accomplished before she returns Monday. 

The dogs’ bellies are full. My bride is off to her conference events. Two cups of coffee have been received. I have my assignments for the day. God’s mercies are new and fresh. His kindness is on full display. Strength for the work and focus for the tasks are ready for employment. 

Let’s go. 

I will lean into this season with intention and anticipation.

Our Father, change not managed well feels like loss. Change in your loving care feels like gain. Thank you for the gains of the day ahead and the season to come. Lead us forward at your pace of grace. Amen.

Daily D – Leviticus 20:25-26

Leviticus 20:25, 26 “You must therefore make a distinction between ceremonially clean and unclean animals, and between clean and unclean birds. You must not defile yourselves by eating any unclean animal or bird or creature that scurries along the ground. I have identified them as being unclean for you. You must be holy because I, the Lord, am holy. I have set you apart from all other people to be my very own.”

Daily D – Leviticus 18:1-5

Leviticus 18:1-5 Then the Lord said to Moses, “Give the following instructions to the people of Israel. I am the LORD your God. So do not act like the people in Egypt, where you used to live, or like the people of Canaan, where I am taking you. You must not imitate their way of life. You must obey all my regulations and be careful to obey my decrees, for I am the LORD your God. If you obey my decrees and my regulations, you will find life through them. I am the LORD.”

Daily D – John 15:4

John 15:4 “Remain in me, and I will remain in you. For a branch cannot produce fruit if it is severed from the vine, and you cannot be fruitful unless you remain in me.”

Daily D – Leviticus 8:22-24

Leviticus 8:22-24 Then Moses presented the other ram, which was the ram of ordination. Aaron and his sons laid their hands on the ram’s head, and Moses slaughtered it. Then Moses took some of its blood and applied it to the lobe of Aaron’s right ear, the thumb of his right hand, and the big toe of his right foot. Next Moses presented Aaron’s sons and applied some of the blood to the lobes of their right ears, the thumbs of their right hands, and the big toes of their right feet. He then splattered the rest of the blood against all sides of the altar.

Daily D – Psalm 40:1-3

Psalm 40:1-3
I waited patiently for the Lord to help me,
and he turned to me and heard my cry.
He lifted me out of the pit of despair,
out of the mud and the mire.
He set my feet on solid ground
and steadied me as I walked along.
He has given me a new song to sing,
a hymn of praise to our God.
Many will see what he has done and be amazed.
They will put their trust in the Lord.
