Rev 21:4
“He will wipe every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away.”
On earth the Lord's words are hard to hear, but one day soon they will make us all understand why and all the hurt will disappear.
Everything is going to be OK my God is not a God of chaos my God is in control my God has a good plan I am good to go!!
Thank you, Lord, for my tears, especially my tears of wonderment & gratitude. Looking back at all my blessings and the way you have provided for me is a true miracle. I just want to thank you!
1 Corinthians 2:9 — But, as it is written, "What no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man imagined, what God has prepared for those who love him.”
God has a good plan and a loving purpose for each of us; we are not a mistake. He formed us with intention, creating us in His own image, and even when we doubt our worth, His care and design for our lives remain unchanged.
Hebrews 3:7–8 — The Holy Spirit says: Today if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts as you did in the rebellion, during the time of testing in the wilderness.
Lord please open our hearts, mind, and ears to hear you. Teach us how to slow down and take a moment to reflect and be slow in our decisions so that we can communicate with you and obey you. The world wants us to be so busy and so distracted so that we cannot hear you. Lord be loud and clear. Lord your way is better!
1 Corinthians 2:2, 5
“For I decided to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ and him crucified. So that your faith might not rest in the wisdom of men but in the power of God.”
Lord, thank you that you are enough. You are our waymaker and our provider. Help us to center our life around you and not this world, and to know the truth that this world, money, and man cannot provide all we need. Help us to not let our own pride rule us, but help us to rest and rely on you.
Take a moment with you.
Before you move on, notice how you feel. Perhaps there is something to be grateful for; perhaps today simply needs gentleness. There is room for either.
