Friends

Iam so blessed with friends. Those of you that read this blog, know that I have been going through such a hard time lately. The other day I came home and found flowers, card and a healthy cake all for Steve, Jesse and I. We all have birthdays close to each other. Sorry the cake is gone and we didn't get a picture of it. Thanks guys, you know who you are!

When I am going through a difficult time, I ask the Lord, Why? I may not get the answer right away but the outcome is always wonderfully orchestrated by Him.

'For I know the plans that I have for you,' declares the LORD, 'plans for welfare and not for calamity to give you a future and a hope. Jeremiah 29:11

BE STILL

I have been mediating Psalm 46:10.


Be still and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.

Do I really know what it means to be still? There is so much busyness around us today. I have a plaque above our fireplace that has this verse on it and I see it everyday several times a day.

Another verse that I have been mediating on is Matt 6:34. Do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will take care of itself.

It is so easy to worry. Where does worry come from? It is a lack of trust in God. The Lord is reminding me to Be still and listen for His voice and not to worry about tomorrow and not to be fearful.
