in quietness and confidence

i will never forget the very first time i saw this verse. i was sitting in Pastor Gary's office in Redwood City, CA with Cody and his mom. we had just been given the ever so dreadful news that no one ever wants to hear.

P. Gary has an incredible picture of a tree hanging on the wall in his office. my eyes were drawn to the words at the bottom for some reason. "in quietness and confidence is your strength." (Isaiah 30:15b) i had no clue what that meant. still don't.

that little verse has crept up so many times in this season. seriously i went from NEVER knowing it to practically hearing/seeing it all the time. God's kinda funny like that sometimes.

last night, i heard those words in my sleep. i heard them. and when i woke up, they were my first thoughts. like i said, i dont really know what they mean exactly, but i hope holy spirit's about to enlighten me.

i'll let you know.

I'm looking forward to what is revealed to you. There's some very powerful stuff spoken in that chapter. Vs 19-27 caught my eye. Gods trying to catch our attention today! Very prophetic service here in Redwood City. Pastor Gary's friend,Dr. jay Leroux is here for a conference and spoke out of Isaiah this morning. Any way, can't wait to here what He says to you on this!
