"FETH"

These are some pretty cool ideas about some of the words in the Old Testament and what they stand for:

"Spaciousness- Christ is limitless and inexhaustible in His riches (Eph. 1:3; 3:8, 17-19)

Good- Christ embodies goodness, pleasantness, and excellence (Phil. 3:8)

Water- Christ is a stream, a fountain, and a spring of living water that is refreshing and quenches our thirst (John 4:10-14; 7:38)

Valleys and hills- Christ is both a valley of suffering and a hill of overcoming (2 Cor. 4:11-12; 6:9-10)

Wheat- Christ is the power to die to self (John 12:24-25; Phil. 3:10)

Barley- Christ is resurrection life, which overcomes death (John 6:9-13; 11:25; 1 Cor. 15:22-23)

Vines- Christ is the real Vine (John 15:1-5). He is also the fruit of the vine-the crushed grape and the new wine that gives joy and gladness to His people (Judg. 9:13; Ps. 104:15)

Figs- Christ is our sweetness and the fruit of the Spirit (Judg. 9:11; Gal. 5:22-23)"

Fallen*

I have fallen again

This pit seems to draw me in

I wish I could see the end

But I know that is that not the truth

This lie that I have been living

Seems to be dying

I feel you coming through me

You draw me out

You pull me through again

Your love is overwhelming

Your love is so much more

Than any I adore

Show me the light

Here I am again

Praying for another plan

I need you to help me through

Have you forgotten me?

This lie that I have been living

Seems to be dying

I feel you coming through me

You draw me out

You pull me through again

Your love is overwhelming

Your love is so much more

Than any I adore

Show me the light

The Lord did not set His heart on you and choose you because you were more numerous than other nations, for you were the smallest of all nations! Rather, it was simply that the Lord loves you.

(Deut. 7:7-8 NLT)
