Word Filled Wednesday–New Every Morning

WFWlogo

Through the Lord’s mercies we are not consumed,

Because His compassions fail not.

They are new every morning;

Great is Your faithfulness.

Lamentations 3:22,23

BEST0000111335

As the New Year approaches, it gets me anxious to evaluate how things are going in my life and to purpose to seek new qualities and characteristics.  Often it can be tempting to feel deflated when I see where I would like to be, but realize how far I am from that place. 

A verse like this brings comfort and strength because any spiritual progress I make is from the Lord and His faithfulness.  He knows me, my strengths, my weaknesses and my failures.  He loves me and has compassion…always…that never run out.  Great is His faithfulness.  That’s worth waking up each day to!

    I needed that reminder this morning. I spent my quiet time this morning doing just that - reflecting with God - and it can get overwhelming but these verses are precious reminders of promise. Thanks for sharing.

    I enjoyed your Christmas pictures:) I see the boys got new sweatshirts - what about Momma? Anything special? I really did not take many pictures either. Funny.

    Hope you are enjoying a nice holiday week - and looking forward to another year to walk with our Lord and seek to serve Him more.

    Blessings friend, Jennifer

Sometimes We Score, Sometimes We Block

Our family is in the midst of little league soccer season. My youngest son is playing and his enthusiasm is contagious. He is pretty good at the sport, but what makes it so great is that he loves it! He counts the days until the next game or practice. He loves his coach and teammates. He has moved up an age level this year and the players are working more like team, passing to each other and watching out for each other during play. During the last game, my son scored two goals, they were the only goals of the game. In today's game the team scored eight goals. My son came up afterwards to me and said, "I didn't score today, but I blocked". What a powerful truth those words can hold. In life, sometimes we score, sometimes we block. Sometimes we do great things, we excel, we achieve, we meet our goal - we score! There are also times we see the needs of others, sometimes they are sad or hurting, we block their hits. We look out for them so they can score. We...

Word Filled Wednesday – Act Justly

He has shown you, O man, what is good;       And what does the LORD require of you                But to do justly, To love mercy,       And to walk humbly with your God?    Micah 6:8 Sometimes we struggle so hard with the question “What does God want us to do and be?”  This verse is a simple yet powerful reminder of some simple things that God requires of us.  Act and do justly, love mercy and walk humbly before God.  There are numerous opportunities each day to do justly, to do the right thing or to make the right choice.  We love mercy when we show kindness or mercy oftentimes to those who do not deserve it.  Walking humbly before God is acknowledging He alone is God.  He is the I AM – no one else is.  When we give Him the glory He is worthy of, it will humble our heart before Him....
