    Grasping After The Wind

    Posted on August 14, 2016May 22, 2021 by kenbarnes

    Enjoy what you have rather than desiring what you don’t have. Just dreaming about nice things is meaningless—like chasing the wind (Ecclesiastes 6:9 NLT)   It is much better to dwell on what you have rather than on what you don’t have.  Doing otherwise can launch us into a life-long journey of trying to grasp […]

    The next morning the word of the Lord came to the prophet  Gad, who was David’s seer.  This was the message: “Go and say to David, ‘This is what the Lord says: I will give you three choices.
