His Peace.......

The Lord makes His face shine on you and be gracious to you,  the Lord turn His face toward you and give you peace.  Numbers 6:25 -26

Peace I leave with you, my peace I give you.  I do not give to you as the world gives.  Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.   John 14:27



Isn't it amazing to know that no matter where you are, no matter what you're doing.... God is right there in the midst of things with you.

That in itself you would think would make you feel calm and secure.  Yet because we live in the world, that isn't what the world wants us to feel.

We get so caught up in our hustling and bustling lives that we so often forget to just stop...stop whatever it is we are doing...and take in a deep breathe and remember He is right there....right beside you...walking with you. You are not alone, He's right there.

So when you get all frustrated, frazzled, anxious....whatever feeling you are having that isn't reflecting God's peace....stop....breathe....and tell Him you need to feel His presence.  Take in the fresh feeling of the light from His face shining onto you at that very moment.


Go make it the best day you have ever had!

Psalm 37:4 Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart.

This is one of my favorite verses. I use to think that all I had to do was love God and He would give me what I wanted. Sounds good...Right?......Wrong! As I began to grow in my relationship with my Heavenly Father, I soon realized that isn't at all what He is saying to me. To delight in the Lord meant that He wanted me to have such a strong reverent, respectful, longing to be with, longing to obey, relationship with Him; that the desires of my heart would soon be turned to what He was desiring for my life.
 Submission. Wanting to do nothing but to please (obey) my Heavenly Father.
