Daily 5 - Year 3, Day 65

Today's Daily 5:

  1. leftover stuffed crust pizza
  2. reading on the bus
  3. an audio book I'm really enjoying
  4. an appointment that was helpful
  5. studying and discussing a couple chapters of Mark, and then praying together with friends at house church

Jeremiah 29:4-7

This is a passage that has been heavily on my heart this week, as I consider my living and work situations among other things. I find myself praying that I will allow my heart to be continually soft to the things God is speaking (and/or repeating from the past) as I listen and seek to walk with Him.

Jeremiah 29:4-7
This is what the LORD of Heaven’s Armies, the God of Israel, says to all the captives he has exiled to Babylon from Jerusalem: “Build homes, and plan to stay. Plant gardens, and eat the food they produce. Marry and have children. Then find spouses for them so that you may have many grandchildren. Multiply! Do not dwindle away! And work for the peace and prosperity of the city where I sent you into exile. Pray to the LORD for it, for its welfare will determine your welfare.”

I'd love to hear what this passage stirs for each of you.
