Psalm 46:10a
Things have been so hectic and crazy lately, especially with the holidays and all. I have also had a very hard time over the last couple of months dealing with the reality that I am completely bedridden and that my physical pain keeps getting worse and worse. It is very frustrating for me and I just don't understand why all this is happening to me. There are a lot of things in my life that have happened that I just don't understand. However, I can sense the Holy Spirit speaking to me, filling my heart with these words from the scriptures....'Be still and know that I am God.'
When I meditate on that scripture, I know that He is God Almighty, Lord of the Universe, King of Kings, Lord of Lords, My Savior and My Redeemer!! He came to this world to give His life so the I might LIVE! So, I need to be still.....and remember that He IS God! He is in control and He will not let anything happen that He and I can't handle together.
AMEN!

PS I meant to say "picture". (Sorry)
Sorry about your illness. Stay strong!
Thanks for coming by my blog!
Wonderful scripture! I think God uses you to get our attention. What you're going through lets us see your faith and helps us to be stronger in our faith. You ever read the story of Ruth. Naomi is left a widow and her only children, her two sons, die. She's left alone, no means of support,no one to take care of her. She becomes angry and bitter, then in steps Ruth, one who worshiped a pagan God, did you know that. Ruth wasn't a Christian when she married Naomi's son. No where in the book does it show Naomi tried to change her. She accepted Ruth as she was. Yet she lived her life for Ruth to see as a loving wife, a loving mother to her sons and their wives. So that when all was said and done, Ruth said, " I will make your people my people and your God my God." Naomi means "peaceful" and Ruth means "Refresher". When Naomi became bitter and angry, Ruth went with her and nurtured her till she realized joy and happiness again. The story of Ruth and Naomi remind me of you.
"For he shall give his angels charge over you, to keep you in all your ways."
Psalm 91:11
Praying for you.
You are in my thoughts everyday!!
I hope and pray you feel better soon. Thanks for stopping by my blog and I am following you now and needed this verse today. I know what you mean about the holidays. Everything was so crazy and rushed and I feel like I didn't get to spend much quality time with my family.
That is absolutely gorgeous. Praying for God's healing touch ~ nothing is too hard for Him. He is our hope. Blessings ~
Hello. I'm visiting from sits. I hope you feel better very soon. Your post was beautiful and very touching!
Your comment over at mine really made me laugh! I will give a try I swear, but in return you have to read the conversation that comes with it - even if it's muffled.
Sometimes being still is the hardest thing to do. But knowing that He is God helps us to see we really do not have anything much else we can do, really! And being still brings so much peace if we let it. Praying for you,
Christy
I truly and firmly believe that God has good plans for each of us. We don't always understand and maybe we're not meant to. Paul says that we should make all requests known to God and God will give us peace. I hope God sends you peace and relief from your pain soon.
St. Augustine in his book City of God said that the only difference between the Christian and the Pagan (because they both suffered the same challenges) was how they handle what life throws at them. You are a beautiful example of God's beautiful spirit through adversity - your generosity of spirit shines through, you continue to love unconditionally, and your faith of God's great mercy is not conditional! You are an inspiration to me!
I'll be praying for you - believing in healing!
(Oh, I almost forgot - I have a thank you over at my place for being all I said in the above!)
you are truly an example of grace! through all your challenges and suffering, you remain loyal to Him. I know God has glorious rewards in store for you!
(((hugs)))

I hope that you feel better, I will be praying and I am sorry you are going through this!
t is so hard to do...Be still and know that I am God...DOUBT loves to creep into my brain and heart.
Sorry to hear that things have been rough for you lately! I'm so glad, however, that you're keeping a positive spirit and dealing with it well. Hope that you feel better very soon! We'll be keeping you in our prayers! Hang in there {{{ hugs }}}}

Teresa,
Funny, how He's asking both of us to be still.
To know that He is God.
And that He is good.
Thank you for directing me to this post.
Sweet dreams.
