Certain scriptures resonate deeply within the community of Land Of Seven Rivers.
They speak of journeying with the Lord, learning His rhythm and travelling at His pace. There is a unique journey, rhythm and pace that the Lord has mapped out for each one of us.
Our prayer is that you discover the way of travelling that God has designed specifically for you and walk in it joyfully as a much-loved son or daughter of our loving and glorious Father.

All together now - applause for God!
Sing songs to the tune of His glory,
set glory to the rhythms of His praise.

Ephesians 4:11b-15
He handed out gifts of apostle, prophet, evangelist, and pastor-teacher to train Christians in skilled servant work, working within Christ's body, the church, until we're all moving rhythmically and easily with each other, efficient and graceful in response to God's Son, fully mature adults, fully developed within and without, fully alive like Christ.
galatians 5:22-23
But the Spirit produces love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, humility, and self-control. There is no law against such things as these.
galatians 5:25-26
Since this is the kind of life we have chosen, the life of the Spirit, let us make sure that we do not hold it as an idea in our heads or a sentiment in our hearts, but work out its implications in every detail of our lives. That means we will not compare ourselves with each other as if one were better and one were worse. We have far more interesting things to do with our lives. Each of us is an original.
philippians 2:12-13
What I'm getting at, friends, is that you should simply keep on doing what you've done from the beginning. When I was living among you, you lived in responsive obedience. Now that I am separated from you, keep it up. Better yet, redouble your efforts. Be energetic in your life of salvation, reverent and sensitive before God. That energy is God's energy, an energy deep within you, God himself willing and working at what will give him the most pleasure.
matthew 8:23-27
Jesus got into the boat and started across the lake with His disciples. Suddenly a fierce storm struck the lake, with waves breaking into the boat. But Jesus was sleeping. The disciples went and woke Him up, shouting, "Lord, save us! We're going to drown!" Jesus responded, "Why are you afraid? You have so little faith!" Then He got up and rebuked the wind and the waves, and suddenly there was a great calm. The disciples were amazed. "Who is this man?" they asked. "Even the winds and the waves obey Him!"
Galatians 6:4-5
Make a careful exploration of who you are and the work you have been given and then sink yourself into that. Don't be impressed with yourself. Don't compare yourself with others. Each of you must take responsibility for doing the creative best you can with your own life.
