Isn't it amazing that when you really need something, God speaks to you, if you ask? I've been up since before 5 am this morning. (NOT normal.) I've got some small worries that were nagging at me and my mind just wouldn't quit working. So, I just got up. After Paul left for work, I got on here and read my devotion for the day. Here are the verses and prayer...
Psalm 57: 1-2 "Be merciful to me, O God, be merciful to me! For my soul trusts in You; And in the shadow of Your wings I will make my refuge, until these calamities have passed." (NKJ)
Hebrews 4:12 "For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart." (NKJ)
Jeremiah 15:16 "Your words were found, and I ate them, and Your word was to me the joy and rejoicing of my heart, for I am called by Your name, O Lord God of hosts." (NKJ)
Psalm 119: 103 "How sweet are Your words to my taste, sweeter than honey to my mouth!" (NKJ)
My Prayer for Today:
Dear Lord, Thank you for giving us a living book, Your Word, to strengthen us, to direct us, to deliver us and to rescue us from despair. May You be exalted by the way we live, the words we speak and the testimony of our character. You are worthy of all praise and honor! In Jesus' Name, Amen
Thank you, Lord, for being so amazing and knowing just what I need, when I need it. I sit here, in tears, to think that the God of this vast universe cares enough for ME to love me and let me hide in the shaddow of his wings while He takes care of me and the trivial things that are really not that big of a deal. I look back on the last couple of days, and see why some of the things happened the way they did. He was taking care of me...again, before I even knew it would be something I'd need. Thank you, Jesus.
