Psalm 94:18 When I said, “My foot is slipping,” your unfailing love, Lord, supported me.
I am truly awed at how God shows up in my life when I am paying attention. (He’s always there, reminding me of His presence, His love. I just don’t always notice.) This spring, as my heart cries louder and louder in worry, fear, and anxiety, God continues to show up in so many ways, reminding me that I am His, that He sees me, knows me, loves me so very much. He does the same for you, too.
Psalm 94:19 When anxiety was great within me, your consolation brought me joy.
So I want to encourage you to pay attention to the little ways that God shows up today. This text you are reading from a hot mess on the struggle bus trying to shine His light? That’s God. The sunshine? The cool breeze? The kind word? God. And YOU can help Him shine today by passing along a kind word, a smile, an encouragement, by lifting someone up in the smallest of ways.
Psalm 94:22 But the Lord has become my fortress, and my God the rock in whom I take refuge.
Lord, Thank You for the reminder that You are with us and in us, that we can shine Your light just by being kind to others. Thank You that when I am paying attention, I can see You, Your love, Your goodness, everywhere. Thank You that I can help lift others up in Your name. Help me to see Your love today. Help me to be Your love today. Amen.
1 Thessalonians 5:11 Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing.
Have a blessed day.
