Leaning into peace...

 

My prayer:

Amazing God. I remain in awe of  you. Thank you for your miracle protection this week. I don't know what this next week has in store but I know you will take care of it. 

Each day holds so many unknowns right now but somehow, your peace is still the main thing that I experience. Between the health challenges, the work challenges, the grieving, and the other million challenges of every day, I look at it and think, wow, I should be freaking out a little. However, because of who you are and all that you have promised and shown me, I instead look at it all and feel your peace. I hold on firmly to the absolute knowledge that you are in charge and that you have my best interest always. 

Every once in a while, I hear a whisper that says, "Yeah, but what if God isn't there any more. What if He walks away." And in that moment, I am fully terrified, until I remember what you always tell me, you will never leave me and never forsake me. 

My God doesn't lie and My God says he won't leave me. Ahhhh, there's the peace again! I love you LORD!!!

What God Said Tonight:

I am here. I am always here for you my child. You have said it, I will NEVER leave you, and when I say "never" it truly means never. 

You are the apple of my eye and I have invested too much in you, in my children to ever turn my back on you. We are in this together and that is how it will be for eternity. 

You made that choice when you chose to walk the path of my will. When you accepted my Lordship in your life and received the salvation I provided. In that choice, so many things happened but one of those things is that we were bonded together forever. 

I love you my children and keep leaning into my peace. It is there for just that purpose. 

 

My prayer:

Feeling grateful and at peace tonight Lord. Not because of anything that is or is not going on in life, but really, just sitting in that place of peace that you have created for me. 

I love this spot. I love this spot of assurance that you are in charge and that I am your child. I can make what ever decisions I want but I choose you, every time God, I want to choose you and your will. 

There are a ridiculous amount of choices in tie world but I have learned that the only choice that does not come back to haunt me are the ones where I start with, "God, your will be done..." That is the only choice that really matters.

What God Said Tonight:

There is little difference between following my will and following me, but there is a difference. If you are a follower  of me, your heart is changed. We share a spirit. 

When you abide in me, when we are aligned then where your heart leads you is most often also where I am I am going. What we do when we get there is where you should listen the most carefully.

I love you more than you will ever know,
