Jesus Loves You.. He Really Does..

thCA5SKHVO jesus loves youIn our battles.  In our struggles.

What does strength look like?

“My grace is sufficient for you, for My power is made perfect in weakness..”

2 Corinthians 12: 9

The Apostle Paul continues on and says…

“Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.  That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weakness, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties.  For when I am weak, then I am strong..”

2 Corinthians 12: 9-10

It’s okay to not have all of the answers…In fact, it’s better… Sometimes, we need to be still; to be quiet, to process… think and then turn those thoughts into prayers of surrender…

Oh, Lord, what a blessing it is to know that in the things I am up against; The things that are weighing heavy on my heart and mind;  The things that make me feel weak…insecure…vulnerable…

These are the very things, that refresh and refuel my heart, if I would only, truly.  Turn them over to You.   I don’t have to let my mind dig in, resolve, or fight for an answer.  That by Your grace, I am not overwhelmed, but instead; Your strength in my life; in my heart;  is made perfect.  My job is to acknowledge the difficulty, and in Your faithfulness and love, you cover, protect and guide my path..

Amazing..

Oh, Lord, You are The Way, The Truth, and The Light… How very thankful I am for your goodness, power, and strength..

I love You..

In Jesus, Name,

Amen

    ” Let your gentleness be evident to all.  The Lord is near.  Do not be anxious about anything..

  But in everything, by prayer and petition , with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.

    And the peace of God which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”

Philippians 4: 5-7

God Bless You, Sweet Friend :)

Live in Love…

Reedemed..

When life seems out of control.  When you feel you can’t catch your breath. When you are ready to surrender.  His word rings true…you are beautifull in every single way 2

” The Lord is my strength, and my shield; my heart trusts in Him, and I am helped.  My heart leaps for joy and I will give thanks to Him in song..”

Dear Lord,  How I need You today.  Father, please hear the cry of my heart.. I come to you for rest and healing.  You are my strength, and my shield…  I cry out to You; Abba, Father.  As I lift my eyes toward heaven, Oh Lord, I say thank You.  Thank you for your inspiration, hope and encouragement.

May you fill my day with your tender loving care.. As I choose to put down this heavy load and lift my hands to you, how I thank you that your burden is easy…

Living a life of love, and beauty in Your eyes is enough… Help me to love those around me, bring joy into my home.. work… or wherever I may find myself today.  May other’s see your beauty and grace..

How I love you, In Jesus’ Name,

Amen

He Covers Me..

love coversLove one another deeply

“Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins..”

1 Peter 4:8

Love is that strong…I thank God so much for this treasure in scripture..

Jesus covers our sin.. He loves us deeply and gives us the desire to do the same for other’s in our life..

If you are struggling with forgiveness, how my heart bleeds with you…. know that God is near, God hurts with you, and He will, in His timing, open the flood gates…

Keep seeking who He is, keep believing in His goodness and grace.  His loves washes us clean, and gives us the strength to see beauty in what we only see as a mess…

As we learn to forgive, we are so blessed to discover that we can trust God with our heart.. we never have to go backwards, or put ourselves, or our hearts, in harm’s way.

Ever….

 When we forgive, we can be released to let God deal with the situation, the people, and the pain.  He is our refuge, and our

song…

“You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. Surely goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I dwell in the house of the Lord forever..”

How awesome is that!

Dear Heavenly Father, thank You so much for your constant protection, mercy and grace… Thank you for your undying hope and relentless grasp of love that keeps me so close to Your heart…

Thank You, Jesus, for forgiving me of so much…May that forgiveness give me the comfort and strength to trust You, as I forgive the people, or things that keep my heart bound… may You open the eyes of my heart, Oh, Lord, and keep me close. Thank You for covering me with your great mercy and love…

I love You, Jesus

In Your name, I pray…

Amen

I love you,
