Letters From Heaven!
"For as the rain comes down, and the snow
from heaven…so shall My word be that goes
forth from My mouth."
Isaiah 55: 10-11
Last December, a woman named Katrina in Youngstown, Ohio, grabbed
her mail from the mailbox and was shocked to find a card addressed to
her in her mother’s handwriting. The envelope had her mother’s return
address on it. But Katrina’s mother passed away in 2018.
The postmark said, “June 20, 2015.” It was a birthday card, lost in the
mail, delivered more than five years after it had been mailed. Katrina
opened the card and there in her mother’s handwriting was a Bible
verse: “I know the thoughts I have towards you sayeth the Lord.
Thoughts of peace and not of evil.”
Katrina took it as a message from
heaven for her, here and now.
Whenever we open our Bibles, it’s like opening a handwritten
message from heaven, and as we read consistently through
Scripture, the verses often come to us just as we need them.
During difficult times, we’re lifted up by God’s Word,
which came down from heaven as truly as rain and
snow.
"This is the power of the Scriptures personally. They
speak, and if we will listen and heed them and let
them take us over, they will transform us, forever."
Mark Clark
