Psalm 32:7-9 New International Version (NIV)
7 You are my hiding place;
you will protect me from trouble
and surround me with songs of deliverance.
8 I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go;
I will counsel you with my loving eye on you.
9 Do not be like the horse or the mule,
which have no understanding
but must be controlled by bit and bridle
or they will not come to you.
TEACHABLE ~
Stay teachable and ready for a new day
Sometimes I forget how far God has brought my life. I look back on pictures and see my kids little. I enjoy those days of laughter and their excitement over something they accomplished in life. They are now adults and I find myself in the same spot. I love to hear them happy and enjoying their lives. I believe God feels the same way for each of us. He enjoys hearing us happy and enjoying this life he has given us. Our thoughts direct our words and words direct our path.
REST ~
God has plan rest for each of us
Genesis 2 New International Version (NIV)
2 Thus the heavens and the earth were completed in all their vast array.
2 By the seventh day God had finished the work he had been doing; so on the seventh day he rested from all his work. 3 Then God blessed the seventh day and made it holy, because on it he rested from all the work of creating that he had done.
As we sit down to read the word of God, listen to music or just empty our thoughts, God is there. God is able to handle your now of life. Each of us face something different and are in different spots of life. I was never meant to be you or you me. God created us unique and on track of his plan. Each day we can accomplish so much and change our own thoughts into positive.
Philippians 1:6 New International Version (NIV)being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.
ONE FRIEND ~
Jesus is our one friend who understands us completely. Many people have a best friend who they talk to in life. People even have pen pals and making connections are important. We must be careful in whom we trust but finding a trusted friend, is a best friend.
My prayers continue for you, your family and friends.
