Be still, and know that I am God;
I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth! (Psalm 46:10, New Kings James Version)
Restlessness
When we're trying to get to sleep at night and can', we're restless. When we're waiting on something or someone, we're restless and ready to move on to the next task on our agenda. Do you ever find yourself with a restless spirit? Ladies, open your heart and receive what God has to say to you today.
"My child, be still and know that I am God. Let the clammer and the noise of your life cease. Put your complete focus on me. Put your hurt, your fear, your heavy burdens into my hands and let them go. Put your complete dependence and trust in Me and Me alone. Once you do that, you will find the rest you long for."
Father, teach us all what it means to rest in You. I pray for each reader Lord. I pray that she'll give every weight and hurt over to You so she can rest in You. In Jesus Nane, Amen.

My Grace is Sufficient
And He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. (2 Corinthians 12:9, New King James Version)
"David's been in a car accident." Those were the dreaded words I read in an email just a few weeks before Christmas. I immediately felt a sinse of helplessness and dread. As those feelings of helplessness came over me, a sweet assurance came to my spirit at almost the same instant. "My grace is sufficient for you." Have you ever had a feeling of helplessness and then God came to reassure you with His sweet spirit? Or, you're going through a trial and felt at the end of your rope, and still, that sweet assurance came to you? Ladies, that assurance sustained me when the friend was over 5 hours away from me; and all I wanted to do was be there with him and his precious wife, and it still sustains me all these weeks later when he's still in major pain at times. Let me assure you, whatever you're going through, He'll be there for you as well. He'll be there to sustain you when you feel like your world is crumbling. He'll be there when you feel that prayer isn't enough, but it's all you can do.
Father, thank you for the grace that you give on a daily basis. You give us just enough grace for the moment. I pray that you'll be with my readers in their trials of life. Help them know that no matter what, your grace is sufficient. Lord we love You and we praise You, Amen.

Shattered Places
The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit, A broken and a contrite heart
These, O God, You will not despise.
(Psalm 51:17, NKJV)
Do you ever feel like all you ever have to offer the Lord is a broken heart-a broken spirit? That's ok. He will not despise that. He says that our praise is a sweet sacrifice to Him, whether it's on a day filled with joy or filled with pain. Are you going through a betrayal? He's been there. He was betrayed by one of His closest friends, remember? If you're going through the loss of a child-a loved one, bring it to Him. Bring Him your broken pieces. Your broken heart doesn't go unnoticed by a loving and faithful God. Ladies, I can assure you, He will bring you through to the other side. When He does, you will have so much to thank and praise Him for! Until then though, let's praise Him in the midst of our pain, in the midst of our broken heart.
Father, hold these precious ladies in your arms of love. Remind them that they're not alone. Lord, we love you!
