“Call to me, and I will answer you; I will tell you wonderful and marvellous things that you know nothing about. (Jeremiah 33:3 GNT)
Where are you seeking your solutions from? Are you seeking The Lord first? Are you looking to the world for answers? Gods word tells us to call on him and he will show us the way. In the world today you are viewed as weak if you need help, we are misled to believe that our self efforts are the only solution. Today I pray that we all would seek God in our times of confusion. Misunderstanding , depression, etc….. He will always have the solution…… Be Blessed

“REST IN GOD’S RADIANT PRESENCE. The world around you seems to spin faster and faster, till everything is a blur. Yet there is a cushion of calm at the center of your life, where you live in union with GOD. Return to this soothing Center as often as you can, for this is where you are energized: filled with The LORD’S Love, Joy, and Peace. The world is a needy place; do not go there for sustenance. Instead, come to The LORD. Learn to depend on GOD alone, and your weakness will become saturated with GOD’S Power. When you find your completeness in GOD, you can help other people without using them to meet your own needs. Live in the Light of GOD’S Presence, and your light will shine brightly into the lives of others.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young

“Endure suffering along with me, as a good soldier of Christ Jesus. Soldiers don’t get tied up in the affairs of civilian life, for then they cannot please the officer who enlisted them. And athletes cannot win the prize unless they follow the rules. And hardworking farmers should be the first to enjoy the fruit of their labor. Think about what I am saying. The Lord will help you understand all these things.” 2 Timothy 2:3-7 NLT
Paul speaks of relying on Jesus for strength and knowledge. Are you trying to follow the rules of the world standard or the knowledgeable ways of the Lord to win your race? Today’s prayer is that we would all pray for the knowledge to run our race in a way that will please God………Be Blessed

When He had called the people to Himself, with His disciples also, He said to them, “Whoever desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me. For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake and the gospel’s will save it. (Mark 8:34- 35 NKJV)
Losing your life to save it is the best decision we ever made, getting rid of the old sinful nature brings us eternal life. Today look through whatever trial comes your way and look to the eternal life we have in heaven. Take up your cross and rejoice in the end we win……..Be Blessed

“MAKE FRIENDS WITH THE PROBLEMS IN YOUR LIFE. Though many things feel random and wrong, remember that GOD is sovereign over everything. GOD can fit everything into a pattern for good, but only to the extent that you trust HIM. Every problem can teach you something, transforming you little by little into the masterpiece The LORD created you to be. The very same problem can become a stumbling block over which you fall, if you react with distrust and defiance. The choice is up to you, and you will have to choose many times each day whether to trust GOD or defy GOD. The best way to befriend your problems is to thank GOD for them. This simple act opens your mind to the possibility of benefits flowing from your difficulties. You can even give persistent problems nicknames, helping you to approach them with familiarity rather than with dread. The next step is to introduce them to GOD, enabling The LORD to embrace them in HIS loving Presence. GOD will not necessarily remove your problems, but GOD’S wisdom is sufficient to bring good out of every one of them.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young
And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose. ROMANS 8 : 28
But we preach Christ crucified: a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to Gentiles, but to those whom God has called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God. 1 CORINTHIANS 1 : 23 – 24
Prayer: God thank you for fitting everything into a pattern for good. Open my eyes and heart to see the good you have planned in advance for me today. Some big, and many small treasures waiting to be discovered today. A blue sky, wildflowers, a kind word. Thank you in advance Lord. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
