Asking for Blessing

Asking for Blessing Have you ever prayed for a blessing? Is it narcissistic, or might it be exactly what God entices us to do? If you had asked me a few years ago, I would answer that it seems self-seeking and inappropriate. But today, the evidence in Scripture outways my feelings on the issue. The […]

What a comfort—
Essentially - his love has no end
His faithfulness beyond anything we can comprehend.

This is a truth we can rest in.
I pray you will sweet sister.

Yes!!

We were made for relationship.

We live in such a lonely time. In fact, I recently read that we are the LONELIEST population in FIFTY YEARS🙀🙀🙀

God intends us to be in mutually encouraging relationships. If you have them— thank God.

If you long for some— ask him to provide. He is faithful. ❤️

The thought here is that if you and I were to catch hold of the fullest meaning and impact of the gospel on our lives — we would live differently. We would think differently. We would feel differently.

The encouragement here is to drink deeply of Jesus. Reading the word. Going deeper than the surface— getting more and more familiar with the character of God and the richness offered us in the Gospel.

He doesn’t mean slapping a smile across your face and saying “God is good” all day long- never acknowledging a difficulty. Problems, sorrows, and disappointments will come. But when we “recognize the greatness of the gospel” more and more — we will not remain in the pit of despair.

The gospel is truly good News for you and for me.

Thankful for being a part of a Christian writing community that is more concerned about getting the message of the Gospel out — rather than cutting each other down.

Grace Fox is one of my endorsers for Can You See Me, Now? And she was willing to help in the midst of her own book launch! 🙌

That’s just how this tribe rolls.

…Give me life in Your ways.
This is the alternative the Psalmist suggests.

Hands down - my biggest problem is me.

Left to myself I will squander the day on what will not last. I don’t know why it’s so appealing - but it is. Still.

So I need this one verse in front of me OFTEN.

Maybe you need it, too.

Pray for me, sister — as you seek life. And I will pray the same for you.

What a powerful statement to remind you and me tha

What a powerful statement to remind you and me that God is in the details - the process - and not simply the final product.

It’s a call to be intentional about living in the present, and trusting God for today and beyond.

I’m a fixer- naturally — always thinking how something could be better. Sometimes o feel I should be moving from X to Y when I can’t. Or something is not working as I think it should. It’s the kind of mental activity that makes me miss the present for what could be.

I think becoming a mom of 8 has helped force me into living in the here and now - but it remains a struggle.

I need this reminder that God is in the details of my life —where I am today and where I’m going tomorrow- and these are the locales set apart for me by design.

May you and I pursue the spaces God ordains-taking care to do and be all He would have us do and be regardless of where or with whom.

Did you know the God of all creation finds you rad

Did you know the God of all creation finds you radiant?

You.
Still sporting the same 2020 yoga pant / ponytail get up.

You. The one who has been told otherwise.

You. The one who never feels she never measures up.

You. The one who no longer likes herself because of her appearance.

You. The one wearing scars of days gone wrong.

What a beautiful reality we have in Jesus Christ. In him is the only lasting source of beauty. He changes us from the inside out - making even our appearance more glorious.

Age? Not an issue.
Wrinkles? Covered by joy.
Imperfections? Nonexistent when God looks at you.

There is no shame when we are covered in Christ.

Let that reality impact how you see yourself. May it permeate your heart and mind so that people see it!

Follower of Jesus, you are radiant and only becoming more so, yoga pants and all. ❤️

Powerful reminder - especially for those of us who battle fear.

This is where we go when life gets scary.
Our God is a rescuer—
Only He is able.
He alone can disarm what makes us afraid.

Completely.

Add this promise to your phone. Write it on your mirror. Attach it to your person if you need.

The assurance here is that God has better plans for your day than freaking out due to the scary aspects of your life.

🙌🙌🙌

May we seek the Lord
KNOWING
he is able and live out today fearless.

This declaration comes after a laundry list of all

This declaration comes after a laundry list of all that is coming against the Psalmist. He says “his eyes are worn out from frustration.” He’s in distress, forgotten, people are gossiping about him, and his sin is great.

He’s in a bad spot.

What does he do?
He decides to trust in God.

Basically he is saying, “Lord, all my eggs are in your basket. I’ve got nothing else but you. I’m a mess— you are my only hope.”

And that, my friend, is not a bad place to be.

Being completely at God’s disposal is liberating—even life-giving for us— and not the other way around.

This week a dear friend’s husband (the only one

This week a dear friend’s husband (the only one with a paycheck) was terminated at his company.

Another is being transferred to a new city and just sold their house.

Another precious woman had surgery to remove a brain tumor.

Those are the big scary things in life where the truth of this simple verse makes the anxious calm and the frightened easy.

God is worthy of our trust in the big things.

There are also the days when we are asked to do something out of our comfort zone in front of people. Days when we must step out and move into the Unknown. Or make that dreaded phone call. Or handle a situation with a difficult person. No - they are not major issues - but scary nonetheless.

Still, God’s word rings true.

He is trustworthy in the big and the smaller things of life.

Now that’s good news for your Saturday! 🙌
