Grace Day

Open Your Bible

Philippians 4:8

Take this day to catch up on your reading, pray, and rest in the presence of the Lord.

Finally brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable—if there is any moral excellence and if there is anything praiseworthy—dwell on these things.
—Philippians 4:8

    This verse keeps popping up in my life! So much teaching in it. Thank you Maura for you prayers for Tanner. So very much appreciated!

  2. Victoria E says:

    Hope, this is one of many verses in my collection I have amassed since embarking on the TTC journey:
    Do not fear… do not let your hands hang limp. The Lord your God is with you, He is mighty to save. He will take great delight in you, He will quiet you with His love, He will rejoice over you with singing. Zephaniah 3:16-17

    @Shianne, I don’t know if you’re still on the message boards but I’ve been thinking of you and I wonder if you or your son has read a book called “Is God Still Good “ by Charles Stanley? I have only read an excerpt but you and your son have been in my prayers and my husbands prayers since your post a few weeks ago.

  4. Victoria E says:

    Happy Saturday all! May God bless us all today. Thank you for all your prayers for the IVF, we test on Thursday and I believe God will give us a miracle!

      Amen!

        Thank you Carolyn!

    I would appreciate your prayers. My son’s 14 year old formerly healthy dog has a bacterial infection and is in her 4th day in ICU. She is experiencing fast kidney failure and he is going to pick her up today. She is so loved and we will miss her loyal companionship! This is so difficult, sad, and heart breaking. ❤️
    Thank you.

    @HOPE TRENT – praying for you. It’s much easier said than done to say “Let go and let God” because His gifts and timing are impeccable and unrivalled in perfection…but, it’s true. And I’m sure you’ve been told that when it comes to conceiving, anxiety / stress is the enemy…again MUCH easier said than done.

    When my sister went through her first IVF, it is actually TODAY’S Scripture (Phil 4:6-8) that I gave her…she hung it up in front of her at work to quench every attack of stress.
    It was a small thing but, I also gave my sister a “secret” note / envelope to open each of the 14 days.
    Can you (or someone you love) plan a “treat” for each day of the 2 weeks… something to look forward to?!

    Praying a “God-sized” prayer for you.

    Satan, I renounce you in the name of Jesus! Stay away from each and every one of my sisters…you will not feast on our joy, our peace, our faith or any great gift from our Father.

  7. Maura says:

    Good Morning Sisters, Hope Trent, praying for you. May you feel His peace and love and breathe this day in. Crank up some praise music. Kaitlyn Schroeder, good to hear your boyfriend is doing good and you are seeing answers to your prayers. Thank you for praying for me. Foster Mama, Our God is so Good, thank you for your prayers.
    Dear ERB, I am just organizing today. Still going to see my parents towards the end of this next week. Thank you ERB the wisdom of the apple tree. Smiles. He has each of us and that is more than enough, it is all. Joy to your Saturday Sisters and all He gives you in it.

    Whatever is true, whatever is honorable… I just love how God works. I needed His (and this) WORD this morning. Sometimes working with women can have its challenges. I being one of them. I need to make sure I’m checking my motives regardless of others. And that can be hard at times. But this was heavy on my heart this morning as I woke up. Though sometimes things are not fair I need to keep MY motives in check. I’m the Christian. I’m so imperfect But I need to make sure I’m honoring God.

  9. Hope Trent says:

    Happy Saturday She’s… need some God size prayers. Trying to conceive and I’ve had some horrible anxiety in the 2 week wait. Trying to glorify God but the enemy prowls and is trying to steal my joy by filling with anxiety. Prayers appreciated.

    1. Victoria E says:

      Hope! I am right there with you. I test on Thursday after an IVF embryo transfer. I am praying for you right now and throughout the next two weeks. I know God hears our prayers.

    2. Laurie M says:

      Hope Trent and Victoria E, your story was my story and I hold you close to my heart. Praying for both of you!

    (accidentally posted this on yesterday’s)

    Good morning to all,

    @ANNA & @ MAURA @KAITLIN SCHROEDER – I can’t tell you what your comments meant to me…all of it…I prayed them as a prayer back to Him. I am His; the kids are DEFINITELY His.❤️

    @KAREN S – praying for all the things you do & don’t know you need…He knows!

    @MAURA @ERB @MARI V @all my SISTERS… Praying for you ❤️
