Jer 33:3 Call to Me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know.
I love the way God works. I thought I knew where He wanted me to go with today’s scripture. Last week marked two years since the hubs suffered a minor heart attack. (For the record, any heart attack that happens to someone you love never feels minor!) I’ve been marveling the past few days at our remarkable Savior, who has led my sweet spouse from the back of an ambulance to a trail stretching from Georgia to Maine. Thank You, Jesus.
Psalm 17:6 I call on You, my God, for You will answer me; turn Your ear to me and hear my prayer.
I thought this was to be a reflection of praise, and I am so tremendously thankful for His presence and provision for the hubs and our family, but as I was praying, I was reminded of all the little stresses that I still hold back, that I feel like are too insignificant for Him. I feel Him telling me to give it all to Him, not just the stuff that’s too much for me. He wants me to trust Him with everything. Thank You, Jesus!
Psalm 17:7 Show me the wonders of Your great love….
Lord, Thank You for this day, for Your steadfast love, for Your unending grace and mercy. Thank You for wanting me to hold nothing back and for reminding me to come to You with all my worries and cares, not just the ones I don’t think I can handle. Help me to hold nothing back from You, Lord. Draw me closer. Help me to shine Your light. Amen.
Psalm 17:8 Keep me as the apple of Your eye; hide me in the shadow of Your wings….
Have a blessed day.
My faith, my life, my teaching–it's all a work in progress.
