Grace Day
Open Your Bible
Psalm 23:6
BY She Reads Truth
Use today to pray, rest, and reflect on the Scripture we’ve read this week, giving thanks for the grace that is ours in Christ.
Only goodness and faithful love will pursue me
all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the LORD
as long as I live.
—Psalm 23:6

I’ve been covered in fear lately. The subject of death and loss Regarding myself my loved ones etc…has been so strong in my heart due to circumstances where we were told we were gonna lose our pet but he’s still pushing along. Now I’m just living in fear of the subject. It’s been a week now off and on where I get panic attacks about the subject. Prayers…words of encouragement….anyone else ever struggle with this?
I felt a community of believers would be a place I could share.

Praying for you! Jesus let your perfect peace be felt in a tangible way.

Yes, but for me it is over illness. If this feeling stays around too long, seek help. I’ve been doing some work with my therapist in dealing with my anxiety. The mourning and dancing devotional here was incredibly helpful for me too! Praying for you!!

I asked the Lord for a word for 2020. “Now”. It kind of struck me as odd, not the kind I’m used to getting. But Jesus has made it clear, “Now” is present. Clearly focusing on the Now of life.
So seeing “The Lord IS my Shepherd. I shall not want. Not was or will be.
He is with me now. He is my shepherd today. The Great I AM is my Shepherd ❤️ -
My phrase for 2020 is Grace over guilt, and that has helped so much (and it’s just the first week of this year!) but this verse “Only goodness and faithful love will pursue me all the days of my life…” is so good too! Because God is goodness, God is faithful love, and God will pursue us all the days of our lives. I hope that this year I will continue to pursue God more and more!

I love your phrase, Grace over guilt! That is something that I really had to work through toward the end of last year. This phrase will be a part of my attitude from now on. Thanks for sharing!

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me ALL the days of my life..
This is the verse that precedes this Grace day verse…
Put another way..the message says..
Your beauty and love chase after me every day of my life.
Psalm 23:6a MSGYour beauty and love chase after me..every day… every day!
I dont know about you, but I want/need me some of that every day..
I want to see the beauty that God sees whether in me, others or around me, I would love, oh, and how I chase love, in not necessarily the right places..
Yet..But God..
He is chasing me with His love,a love that is not of this world, His goodness, His grace.. I am undone by that feeling of whatever, whoever, no matter how, God, the Sovereign Lord God, is chasing me.. to bring me back to His house for all my days.. what can I say.. To myself, I say, Stop. Down tools. Stop. Look who is chasing you.. STOP. STOP…. STOP.
To you Lord God, I say, Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. I will forever sing of the goodness of God..
Amen.
Happy weekend Sisters..❤

I am the prey. I am the hunted. The goodness and faithful love of God is in hot pursuit of me. God is relentless in His desire to have relationship with me and in pouring out His blessings on me. Wherever I go, there He is. He chases me until I stop and turn and I quit running. I surrender and He embraces me, His beloved child. We walk on together, side by side. He never leaves. And if I foolishly start to run again, He keeps pace. His goodness and faithful love will not abandon me. He will not quit on me. He has Home on the horizon and He wants me there with Him, to live in His house forever. I catch my breath. I surrender once and for all. I don’t want to run anymore. I fall into His arms. He is Good. Loving. Faithful. Relentless. And me? I am so grateful. We head on Home together.
