Today I am thankful for: yummy food, cuddling with my kiddos, snuggling with my hubby, beautiful weather, fluffy pillows, ceiling fans, a good (& well-needed!) nap, Darrin & Madi playing so well together, snickerdoodles!
Psalm 62:8 "Trust in Him at all times, you people; Pour out your heart before Him; God is a refuge for us."
Psalm 62:5 "My soul, wait silently for God alone, for my expectation is from Him."
These 2 verses touched me today in reading. Ever since I gave God my worry and self-control (a whole 3 days ago, lol!) I have felt better, lighter. I notice that my joy seems fuller! I'm not obsessing over my health, and I have hope that everything will work out--especially according to God's will. These 2 verses really resonated with me. The first one, Psalm 62:8 reminds me to trust in HIM--not myself--at ALL times. And I love how it says to "pour out your heart before Him." He knows our hearts, but how special that He still wants me to share what's in my heart with Him! He patiently and lovingly waits to listen and minister to ME! The second verse I noted, Psalm 62:5, gives me peace. I will be silent--CONTENT--to wait on the Lord. My hope and my trust are in Him alone! From God my Father will I find peace and healing; in His time and in His way. My expectation is from Him! I'm going to stop guessing and trying to "put words in His mouth" for myself. He is wise and great, and He loves me! That is enough!
