OAKS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS
From Isaiah 61:3 “They will be called oaks of righteousness , a planting of the Lord for the display of His splendor.”
Several years back a friend of mine gave me this display plate. It was at a rather difficult time in my life and it meant a lot to me. I would look at it every morning as I left for work. Sure, it’s just a plate but I had it placed right by my door and it would just remind me of whose I am and the words just gave me strength and encouragement for the day. These words have always been beautiful to me. Just remember–you are for the display of His splendor. I hope this encourages you.
Word Filled Wednesday is being hosted today at Critty Joy where you will find a McKLinky if you’d like to participate. You can also find the rules for Word Filled Wednesday at the site The 16o Acres where it was begun.
THE ROAD BACK 
what a sweet friend that was…God has a way of using people in our lives to bring great joy and blessings especially during trials! Thanks for sharing your heart…
Happy WFW!
That is an encouragement ! Great post !

That is absolutely beautiful and thank you for the encouragement. It never ceases to amaze me that our Father cares for us so much, that when He sees us hurting and in pain, He sends someone/something to us to help ease that pain. What a true blessing…:O)

That is so pretty and an awesome verse. Blessings ~
I love plates and other dishes when they have scripture on them. How thoughtful of your friend. It was a blessing to me as well. ~
LOVE that! Beautiful plate. Love the verse.
What a sweet memory and encouragement! 🙂
Wow….Oaks of righteousness……such strength in that word image.
A lovely plate to have.
Thanks to all for your lovely comments. Yes, it is great to have Christian sisters who go thru things with us.
Love your entry on the plate. Great one. Join me today for WFW, and warm welcome to you.
Thank you so much for the information… I just recently joined a group of Ladies for Tuesday night Study Group… The group is call “Oaks of Righteousness”… Looking for my Bible study leaders name on face book, I could not locate, but I found you through the name of the group…
Just wanting more details as I am not righteous… Isaiah 61:3 Wow!!! She did explain to me spiritually filled… I just didn’t understand… As I was stuck on the word “righteous”… We are on display for His Splendor… Also, thank you so much for the encouraging words, “Our life is not determined by our circumstances but by Whom to we belong.” Thanks again… and God Bless
Glad it spoke to your spirit. I know you will be blessed by your study, Thanks and God bless!!
