| A friend told me yesterday, "The Bible seems so real for what we are going through right now!" I thought that too, as I was reading Sarah Young's "Jesus Calling: Enjoying Peace in His Presence", as she paraphrases verses from the Bible. I couldn't find when what she wrote was published but my flip calendar was given to me as a gift seven years ago. Current for today, each day: "As you look into the day that stretches out before you, you see many choice-points along the way. The myriad possibilities these choices present can confuse you. Draw your mind back to the threshold of this day, where I stand beside you, lovingly preparing you for what is ahead. "You must make your choices one at a time, since each is contingent upon the decision that precedes it. Instead of trying to create a mental map of your path through this day, focus on My loving Presence with you. I will equip you as you go, so that you can handle whatever comes your way. Trust Me to supply what you need when you need it." ~ Lamentations 3:22 - 26; Psalm 14:8 NKJV **** |
