Today, as a body of women, let’s meditate on and memorize God’s truth. Not for our own glory or honor, but for the joy of our Father and the growth of His Truth in our hearts.
“The Lord will fight for you, and you have only to be silent.”
Exodus 14:14 ESV
This verse is new for me, but it brings: "Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved." (Psalms 55:22 KJV) and "Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time: Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you." (1 Peter 5:6, 7 KJV) to mind.
It's so easy for me… And lots of people I'm sure, to worry and fear and worry some more about all kinds of stuff in life. and really what does that that help? Nothing. It is verses like this that I need sometimes to remind me that God is always looking out for me and that I don't have to live with anxiety. He has got me through things in the past and He will continue always. What a wonderful God we have! I will add this verse to my ever growing list of favorites. :o)
One thing I do know, despite all my fear and questioning, God does love me and He will stand and fight for me against my enemies and we will not lose! I have become so overcome with emotion as I went back to Day 1 to catch up to you guys on Day 9 and I will as if a load has been lifted off my chest already. My eyes are stinging with tears, and I know this is just the Lord's way of saying, "I am touching your heart my darling child." I'm grateful to have come across a community of women that is so inspiring and encouraging and I ask that you all pray for my strength to continue in spite of how I may feel day to day. I love you all!
What a wonderful God we serve!
Sisters I really need your prayers today! I need guidance and strength! Love to you all! I know He is in control! And am so thankful!
