I-V Drips for the Wounded and Fallen
In my previous blog, I wrote about receiving “I-V drips” from verses in the booklet my husband Rich placed in my Christmas stocking in 1984. Romans 8 provided the greatest sustenance for my malnourished spirit. I’d like to share these with you. If you are in need of spiritual nourishment, I prescribe these I-V drips.
At my lowest, I was so depleted in every way that I found it necessary to meditate and absorb one of these for whatever length of time was needed in order to know I had received all I could from it. I wrote each verse on several 3×5 cards and placed them everywhere I knew I would see them ~ the refrigerator, the bathroom mirror, the dashboard of the car, my desk at work, my nightstand. Each time I saw it, I would read it aloud. I knew I needed to hear it as well as see it. In the beginning, I would use one verse for a week or more, pulling every drop of it into my being. As my spiritual health began to return, I found myself “hungry” more frequently, and the drips changed into delicious meals!
May you find health of soul and spirit as you take in these amazing truths from God’s Word!
