Today is Wednesday, July 13th, 2016; Karen's Korner #3353

Today is our mom and dad's anniversary. They were married in 1943 and celebrated #60 before my dad passed away. And that fact has nothing whatever to do with today's Karen's Korner! It's just a passing memory for me.......

I hope that you like this Karen's Korner as much as I do when I read it first last night and then again this morning. From Sarah Young's "Jesus Calling:  Enjoying Peace in His Presence" and her daily "Jesus thoughts" for July 13:


"I WANT YOU TO EXPERIENCE the riches of your salvation, the Joy of being loved constantly and perfectly. You make a practice of judging yourself, based on how you look or behave or feel. If you like what you see in the mirror, you feel a bit more worthy of My Love. When things are going smoothly and your performance seems adequate, you find it easier to believe you are My beloved child. When you feel discouraged, you tend to look inward so you can correct whatever is wrong.

"Instead of trying to 'fix' yourself, fix your gaze on Me, the Lover of your soul. Rather than using your energy to judge yourself, redirect it to praising Me. Remember that I see you clothed in My righteousness, radiant in My perfect Love."

~ Young's thoughts based on Ephesians 2:7-8; Hebrews 3:1; Psalm 34:5
