gems of promise

My journey of losing my husband is not my identity. But for now, from the fresh wound, spills out words. I pray God will use it for you.

From Australia….

I stayed on the porch this past weekend and pondered Isaiah 54 in the Passion.

I was feeling the crushing on my tender heart with such deep grief missing my adult kids, and the sound of the voice of my husband Dave.

Isaiah 54 has always meant so much to me even before I was married. Years before, I found gems of promises as a single person, that I would get married and have jewels in children. Alas, so I did after a storm tossed period of being single.

So will you look it up and read for yourself. (Isaiah 54)

If you have questions to God amidst your own struggles of deep pain, horrifying betrayal, or deep loss, you just might find some answers from Holy Spirit to hang your hope hat on.

I can honestly say and believe God will give you your own jewels and sapphires of His perfect gifts of compassion, hope, peace, and love.

It is a daily walk with Him that really makes this be your reality as you surrender your thoughts of how you want or think things should work out in your life.

You may go or have been through the years of relentless struggle and torment.

I understand. I’m sorry for your dull ache and affliction you may have experienced.

I still believe this word in this chapter is so full of restoration for you…and yes for me.

Let me explain, ok?

I can remember before I was married the storms that wanted to throw me down with each wave of inner turmoil.. It seemed I no sooner would get up and another wave would slam me down causing a bruising as I would be left spitting out the sand of despair from my mouth.

Now years later, after being married and having two amazing adult children, I feel a different wave that wants to engulf me and keep me down this time.believing in your identity

Grief. Loss. Tragedy.

Ever so true is God’s Word that again I go to Isaiah 54.

He showed me Isaiah 54::2 in the Passion Translation.

“Increase is coming, so enlarge your tent and add extensions to your dwelling.

Hold nothing back! Make the tent ropes longer and the pegs stronger.”

This has major meaning for me personally as I will be looking for a “perfect” home after the land sales desiring room for my children and a special “prophet room” for visiting guests.

Increase is coming! I’m declaring that over you.

What do you do in the waiting amidst the anguish of your heart.

Jewels and gems.

It’s very interesting that in my new venture with Web 3.0 one company I’m associated with, gave away “gems” if you held their NFT. I love this company lead by a Kingdom driven woman of God, Lisa Mayer. Another time another post/video to explain my pivot.

So your Father has a way of expressing His comfort and answers in jewels!!

I read this from a great blog post by Rayna:

“He understands that you do not feel comforted. And, His answer is jewels! Yes, I’m serious. He will restore our foundation to that of precious jewels including sapphires, rubies, beryl stones, and He will make our walls of precious stones. Did you know that beryl stones include emeralds, aquamarines, and morganite? Wow!”

Your jewels may show up as answers to specific prayers. Or better yet, an encounter with Him as you sip your coffee or tea in the early morning or late night.

Look for Him to show you to build and shore up the foundation He desires for you.

Look at these verses:

“You unhappy one, storm-tossed and troubled, I am ready to rebuild you with precious stones and embed your foundation with sapphires. I will make your towers of rubies, your gates of sparkling jewels, and all your walls of precious, delightful stones. All your children will be taught by Yahweh, and great will be their peace and prosperity. Isaiah 54:11-13 tpt

Open your hands. He is ready to give you the Precious stone, a white stone, that has your new name on it. He knows that name….Your standing in His presence as His precious daughter, His much loved son.

What do you think?

I’m always a prayer or an email away..yes, even in Australia.

Be you.

IN the Vine,

Theresa
