It is Friday. Thank goodness. I am tired. I am weary. I am on overload. But I am surrounded by faithful friends and family who pick me up through a hug or a smile or a prayer or a text. Just at the right time. Just as I feel like I am going to sink, the Words come along. What an awesome God to give us that. Words with a person attached. Him loving us through His creation.
So here are some words for the weary, my friends:
Relax~Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal. 2 Corinthians 4:16-18
Refocus~When times are good, be happy; but when times are bad, consider: God has made the one as well as the other. Ecclessiastes 7:14
Repent~Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me. Psalm 51:10
Renew~Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things. Colossians 3:2
Remember~When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze. Isaiah 43:2
Remind~"I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world." John 16:33
Reclaim~He replied, "You of little faith, why are you so afraid?" Then he got up and rebuked the winds and the waves, and it was completely calm. Matthew 8:26
Rejoice~My soul finds rest in God alone; my salvation comes from him. He alone is my rock and my salvation; he is my fortress, I will never be shaken. Psalm 62:1-2
And may the Peace of my Jesus be your Peace too... love and prayers my friends!
