LOVE... 

Rejoices with the truth. I Corinthians 13:6

God’s Word is confirming some truth to this hesitant heart of mine. 

In order to love others well, I need to love myself well. I must believe in who God created me to be. 

I cannot overlook the importance of creating space in my day to pay attention to the true — God given — desires of my soul. I must enter into places of stillness where I can hear the whispers of God. 

The world is loud and will tell us a lot of things, but God‘s truth is what our soul needs to hear above all else. 

People pleasing is fleeting. 

The grass withers and the flower fades. But the Word of God stands forever. 

It is TRUTH whispered in unconditional LOVE. 

DAILY STILL MOMENT: 

What truth is God’s Word whispering to your soul? Carry it in your heart and rejoice in it today. 

EVERLASTING GOD 

See, the Sovereign Lord comes with power, and he rules with a mighty arm. Who has measured the waters in the hollow of his hand, or with the breadth of his hand marked off the heavens? Who has held the dust of the earth in a basket, or weighed the mountains on the scales and the hills in a balance? Isaiah 40: 10,12 

The hand that measures out the seas and marks off the heavens and shapes the mountains, is the same hand that holds me close to His heart! 

As I begin a new week I rest in this truth — 

God holds all things together and He will never let me go. 

Where do you need to declare God’s everlasting embrace over your circumstances today? 

DAILY FAITH DECLARATION: 

MOUNTAIN TOP 

“I have had enough, Lord,” he (Elijah) said. The Lord said, “Go out and stand on the mountain in the presence of the Lord, for the Lord is about to pass by." I Kings 19:11 

I have had enough! 

Ever feel that way? 

The mountain top has always been a place of holy encounters. Moses, Elijah and even Jesus went up to the mountain top to seek God. 

The pulling away. The leaving behind. The intentional seeking. The waiting. 

These seem to be essential components for powerful, life-changing appointments with God. 

There is an innate longing within us — a desperate need for holy encounters — when heaven touches earth and the Lord passes by. 

When I’m paying attention, my restless soul tells me when I need to pull away and find sacred space — a place of sanctuary for the body, soul, mind and spirit to seek the Presence of the Lord. 

If you are feeling fearful or weary, and you’ve had enough, climb up to the mountaintop or fall to your knees... and LISTEN. 

Hear the Lord tenderly ask, “What are you doing here beloved?” 

And we discover God cares and has not left us, and He never will. 

Where is your sacred space to encounter God?
