If you take the time to notice . . .
Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? there is no searching of His understanding. He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might He increaseth strength . . . But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint. Isaiah 40:28-31

Eyes Opened . . .
with his servants, saying, "In such and such a place shall be my camp."
And the man of God sent unto the king of Israel, saying,
"Beware that thou pass not such a place; for thither the Syrians are coming down."
And the king of Israel sent to the place which the man of God told him
and warned him of; and he saved himself there, not once nor twice.
And the heart of the king of Syria was sore troubled for this thing; and he called his servants, and said unto them, "Will ye not show me which of us is for the king of Israel?"
And one of his servants said, "Nay, my lord, O king; but Elisha, the prophet that is in Israel, telleth the king of Israel the words that thou speakest in thy bedchamber."
And he said, "Go and see where he is, that I may send and fetch him." And it was told him, saying, "Behold, he is in Dothan."
Therefore sent he thither horses, and chariots, and a great host: and they came by night, and compassed the city about.
And when the servant of the man of God was risen early, and gone forth, behold, a host with horses and chariots was round about the city. And his servant said unto him, "Alas, my master! how shall we do?"
And he answered, "Fear not; for they that are with us are more than they that are with them."
And Elisha prayed, and said, "Jehovah, I pray thee, open his eyes, that he may see." And Jehovah opened the eyes of the young man; and he saw: and, behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire round about Elisha.

Father's Day
for one is your Father, which is in heaven.
. . . the glory of children are their fathers.
~Proverbs 17:6~
And He (Jesus) said unto them,
Our Father which art in heaven,
Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world.
If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust
of the eyes and the vain glory of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.
And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof:
but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.
~1 John 2:15-17~
If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons;
for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not?
flesh which corrected us,and we gave them reverence:

Joy's Birthday
-Nehemiah 8:10-
His Lord said unto him, well done, good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will set thee over many things; enter thou into the joy of thy Lord.
-Matthew 25:21-
But let all those that take refuge in Thee rejoice, let them ever shout for joy, because Thou defendest them: Let them also that love Thy name be joyful in Thee . . . And my soul shall be joyful in Jehovah: It shall rejoice in His salvation . . . Blessed is the people that know the joyful sound: They walk, O Jehovah, in the light of Thy countenance . . . Oh come, let us sing unto Jehovah; Let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation.
-Psalms 5, 35, 89, 95-
I will greatly rejoice in Jehovah, my soul shall be joyful in my God; for He hath clothed me with the garments of salvation, He hath covered me with the robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom decketh himself with a garland, and as a bride adorneth herself with her jewels.
-Isaiah 61:10-
