There are those days when I just can’t…

I just can’t see beyond myself…

I feel paralyzed and afraid…

Alone and discouraged…

Hope feels distant, and sadness surrounds me…

Oh Lord,

I feel myself sipping away from Your hand of comfort, and heart of hope…

Then…  in the fogginess of my mind…

I catch a glimpse of Your bright light…

A whisper of Your love..

.The gentleness of Your touch…

I can sense Your warmth pulling me near…

There You are!

I feel myself letting the fear fade.

I call Your Name…

Jesus!

 I need You…

I hear Your voice calling my name…  comforting my heart..

And in a nano second…

My heart swells with thanksgiving…

“For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord,

“plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to five you hope and a future.”

Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you.

You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all of your heart.”

Jeremiah 29: 11-13

You, Oh Lord, are listening to my heart…

You are calming my mind, and holding my hand…

I trust You…

I love You…

Oh, how I need You…

Use my life, Father, outside of myself…

I can do all things through Your love that sets me free…

In Jesus Name,

I pray,

Amen

Live in Love,

Lisa
