ACCEPTANCE AND WISDOM PLANTED TO GROW

The Lord loves to hear our laughter and to see our rejoicing. He holds us tenderly during our pain, sorrows and in the poverty of our losses. He folds our prayers with loving hands and in his timing, to grant portions of faith from which we learn understanding and to trust. His presence comforts, gives peace, rains peace from his rivers of stillness as he awaits in patience for our prayers of humility, from a belief his purposes and his righteous ways that we are never alone. There is nothing that you have suffered or struggled with in life that the Lord Jesus has not experienced. You are never, ever, forever alone, or apart from his love, so that today and every day, share your soul with Jesus, the giver of power in unlimited love that bled from a cross.

Wherever you walk, wherever you talk, whoever you are with, be a lamp of light to others, someone they can trust, respect with total acceptance and who want to grow in wisdom. Anticipate HOPE in renewal. The future is available totally in God’s will, grace, mercy and loving compassion. Are you willing? Are you feeling unworthy, tossed in guilt or simply grieving that you will not measure up to expectations? God will never leave or forsake you nor leave you alone!
