Something from Anne Graham Lotz to start the week:

Blessed Assurance

"Happy are the people whose God is the Lord!"

~ Psalm 144:15 NKJV

"Are you facing the future with eyes wide shut, teeth clenched, body tensed, dreading your tomorrows and what they may hold? Do you feel as though you are standing on the brink of a deep, dark abyss of helplessness and despair, caught up in events involving yourself or your loved ones that are beyond your control? Regardless of what those events may be, no matter your mental or emotional or spiritual state, God's vision of the future can fill you with hope right now.

"You and I can look forward WITH HOPE! because we have the blessed assurance of Heaven, My Father's House!"
