Faith-filled Fridays
Isaiah 41:10 New Living Translation (NLT)
10 Don’t be afraid, for I am
with you. Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God. I will
strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right
hand.
Today is a new day. This is
the day that the Lord has made I will rejoice and be glad in it. This is so
important for me to say to myself in the mornings. I can wake up joyful and
triumph or I can wake up tired and cranky, either way it’s so important to
remember to say this to myself. Thanks
for joining me for a new day, Coffee Hour with Chicklit Power and Faith Filled
Fridays with Trench Classes United.
The verse above, reminds me
that God and I are hand in hand and that He will supply all my wisdom and
strength for the day. He will get me through my tough days, reminding me to not
be discouraged, for I have great plans for you. Be patient my child I will make
a way for you, He whispers in my ear. Be joyful in all things!
As I listen to the birds
sing, the beautiful butterflies flutter by, and the sun falls warmly on my
face, I am filled afresh with God’s great love for me. He reminds me again, to
see Him in the small things. Rejoice and praise Him for the small things, such
as, the birds singing His praises and the warm sun upon my face.
I believe in our fast pace
world we need to see the grand in all things. But this thing of instant
gratification which is what we are accustomed to makes this a challenge,
doesn’t it? When we feel that God is being slow to answer, we fall apart and
don’t know what to do, or think He has forgotten us. He hasn’t forgotten any one
of us!
So in the waiting, remember
that He knows best for us, so It is best that we wait. I encourage you today,
to think on how God showed up simply this morning for you, a small reminder for
you of His great love.
Let me share with you one of
Gods small things that bring me great comfort. If I am overwhelmed, stressed,
worried, and I am outside talking with the Lord unloading my every burden, and
I see a butterfly flutter by, right then and there I feel a pouring of His
peace over me. I take a deep breath and say thank you, Lord.
Is there something tiny like
this God does for you, or have you taken the time to notice the whispers of His
love for you? I encourage you to take a good look today, a minute out of the
hustle and bustle and see and feel God’s love all over and around you.
