"The Spirit of the Sovereign LORD is on me, because the LORD has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners, to proclaim the year of the LORD's favor and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all who mourn, and provide for those who grieve in Zion — to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair."~from ISAIAH 61 Bible verse for this Blog

APOLOGY to READERS who followed a SEARCH to HERE & didn't find it

On July 18, 2017, I drafted almost 3000 blog posts that I had published since 2008 when I began blogging, rather than edit each one. So if you clicked here from somewhere else and ended up with the post unavailable or error, I am sorry but this is why. It'd be too much work for me to go back and fix them. There's an explanation on 7/19/17 as I'm still learning.

CREATE
the week of November 10

PURPOSE
the week of November 17

INTENTIONALITY

although the main One Word Focus for all month is

GRATITUDE

actually - for every day

<>

I can hardly believe it's already

NOVEMBER

but I EXPECT 2024 to only

get better

This 1st week's



"There's a big difference between EXPECTation and comprehension ..."

CCR's opening statement continues this thought ...

It was by faith that Moses left the land of Egypt, not fearing the king’s anger. He kept right on going because he kept his eyes on the One who is invisible. Hebrews 11:27 NLT

Proverbs 10:20 ESV; 2 Corinthians 9:8 ESV; Ephesians 3:20 ESV; Matthew 17:20 ESV

Taking Inventory
p. 170

"How did God show up for you?" (#1)

[the other 2 are good also]

"... do you feel as if your expectations are more linked to your faith?" (#2)

"did you learn to live in expectation of a miracle-working God?" (#3)

always have & always will

EXPECT

Miracles (catch blog title) from our miracle-working God

{it kinda looks like "expectation" is the One Word}

plenty of verses that contain both of these words
there are more verses for "EXPECT" than "expectation"
but both will work for our verses 
and others with
EXPECT

There are more verses in the Old Testament (slightly) than
in the New Testament.

Psalms and Romans (Isaiah and Matthew) have the most verses.

💙

Hebrews 11:1 GW
Faith assures us of things we EXPECT and convinces us 
of the existence of things we cannot see.

💙

What I hope & EXPECT this week,

will be the constant in my many prayers

God willing!
