With Love From Dad.

I missed my dad this morning so I decided to give him a call on my way to babysitting. I just wanted to call him and tell him I loved him and also to see what he had to say about what he was reading in the Word. I think my dad is a GREAT dad! I think that he is a wonderful hubby to my mom too. He is consistently being the strong spiritual leader my family needs. He is always giving me passages to look up and keep close to my heart. I think of the characteristics of a good hubby described in Ephesians where it says that he should wash his bride with the Word. Ephesians 5:26 that he might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of the Word. I hope my hubby will do this for me someday. 

Anyway, the verse, rather passage, my Dad gave me to look up today was Psalm 130 and now I wanted to share it with you:

Psalm 130

1. Out of the depths I cry to you, O Lord!

2. O Lord, hear my voice! Let your ears be attentive to the voice of my pleas for mercy!

3. If you, O Lord, should mark iniquities, O Lord, who could stand? 

4. But with you there is forgiveness, that you may be feared, 

5. I wait for the Lord, my soul wait, and in his word I hope;

6. my soul waits for the Lord more than watchmen for the morning, more than watchmen for the morning.

7. O Israel, hope in the Lord! For with the Lord there is steadfast love, and with him is plentiful redemption.

8. And he will redeem Israel from all his iniquities. 

I hope this encouraged you today.
