The Word of God for wisdom:
Proverbs 11:9-11 (NLT)
9 With their words, the godless destroy their friends, but knowledge will rescue the righteous.
10 The whole city celebrates when the godly succeed; they shout for joy when the wicked die.
11 Upright citizens are good for a city and make it prosper, but the talk of the wicked tears it apart.
The Word of God for inspiration:
Psalm 57:1 (NASB)
1 Be gracious to me, O God, be gracious to me, For my soul takes refuge in You; And in the shadow of Your wings I will take refuge Until destruction passes by.
The Word of God for encouragement:
Luke 1:37 (NASB)
37 "For nothing will be impossible with God."
My observation:
The word that spoke into my heart and blessed me this morning was the verse from Psalm 57:1. It is comforting to my heart to know this truth; "For my soul takes refuge in You".
When the fierce winds of the storms blow into our lives, the redeemed of the Lord have an anchor that is sure and steadfast, a God in whom we can trust to deliver us.
Mary found this to be true in her life, and so can you and me.
Luke 1:37 (AMP)
37 For with God nothing is ever impossible and no word from God shall be without power or impossible of fulfillment.
My prayer:
Our Father in heaven, my dear Father, I am so grateful for the time I have each morning to open my bible, and allow the word of God, and the Holy Spirit of God, to speak into my soul. O, how my soul loves God. This will be my theme song as I go through the storm that I am currently facing.
Father, the winds were blowing hard yesterday, but I am so thankful that I could take refuge in the shadow of the wings of my dear Father in heaven.

Mark 4:20 (ESV)
20 But those that were sown on the good soil are the ones who hear the word and accept it and bear fruit, thirtyfold and sixtyfold and a hundredfold."

Looking back, I wrote this two days before my wife died. I have found the Lord to be all that I have needed in the days that followed. PTL!
ReplyDeleteThis is still my testimony; it will be 2 years on Saturday, March 15, 2014 that my wife died.
