Day 2

BRANCH

In that day the Branch of the Lord

will be beautiful and glorious.

Isaiah 4:2

FROM THE FATHER'S HEART
My child, I've heard your cries and protests. When the heat is turned up, My love rises even higher. Do you not know I see and hear the injustices you feel? Do you not realize I am providing for you even in the moments of your greatest frustrations? No matter where you go, I will cover you with My comforting grace.

A GRATEFUL RESPONSE
Lord, You are a towering branch that protects me from the sweltering heat of oppression. Hovering over me, You shelter me with the shade of Your Spirit each day. I have felt the refreshing breath of Your presence, and I am grateful for the sweetness of Your comfort. O Lord, how beautiful is Your name!

SIMPLE TRUTH

God's mercies never dry up. His "branches" will always reach far enough to cover us.
