Hope is important and we are encouraged to “get used to different ” — to changes in us, and to new seasons. Begin today with prayer 🙏 and praise! We have our Father’s ear. Insert the names of your loved ones in this prayer.

May you _____be humble, kind, zealous, patient and holy as He draws you closer in the crucible of His fire 🔥. May His frequent interruption of your thinking be welcomed. May you be fully edified by His banquet of love, grace and word. May His Light shine through you so brilliantly that it draws the curiosity of the broken.

May you be a blessing as His grateful ambassador. May you remain in ever increasing awe of His glorious ways. May you pursue Him more diligently than the day before.

2 Corinthians 5:20 “We are therefore Christ’s ambassadors, as though God were making His appeal through us. We implore you on Christ’s behalf: Be reconciled to God.” AMEN ❤️

Psalm 31:19-24 “How abundant are the good things that You have stored up for those who fear You, that You bestow in the sight of all, on those who take refuge in You. In the shelter of Your presence You hide them from all human intrigues; You keep them safe in Your dwelling from accusing tongues. Praise be to the Lord, for He showed me the wonders of His love when I was in a city under siege….

In my alarm I said, “I am cut off from Your sight!” Yet You heard my cry for mercy when I called to You for help. Love the Lord, all His faithful people! The Lord preserves those who are true to Him, but the proud He pays back in full. Be strong and take heart, all you who hope in the Lord.”

2 Timothy 2:3 “Join with me in suffering, like a good soldier of Christ Jesus.”  Kind people were not born that way they were softened by hard times. Their souls were required to dig their way through this broken world to find the lesson in the suffering. Kind people choose to soften when their circumstance attempts to harden their hearts. Their first hand experience of God’s mercy and His gentle assurance causes them to trust that His purpose and goodness shall prevail. They know that tenderness, kindness and compassion are supremely important.

Psalm 91:9-11 “If you say, “The Lord is my refuge,” and you make the Most High your dwelling, no harm will overtake you, no disaster will come near your tent. For He will command His angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways.” AMEN ❤️ His angels guard us in all OUR ways, therefore, be mindful that thy ways and thoughts are in harmony with His. TRUTH “the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love and self-discipline.” 2 Tim 1:7 ❤ Surrendering to God gives us access to His Holy Presence and His purposed power.

❤️ 2 Peter 3:8 “Grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him be glory, both now and to the day of eternity.” ❤️ By the grace of God alone can anyone be stilled “in Him”. Lord hear our plea to be made more aware of Thy glorious Presence. AMEN
