I Needed to Read This Today

Sometimes, you just can't put how you are feeling into words. Overwhelmed? Crunchy? Feeling the effects of the impending full moon? Lamentations 3: 22-23:

Because of the Lord's great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.

Prayer: Lord, give me the wisdom to follow the path that you choose for me. During life transitions, help me focus on you and remember that your love will protect me from being consumed by negativity. I will wait as long as you want me to for the next journey you have planned for me. Thank you for new days. Amen.

  1. Jaime, I needed this today too. I have been discouraged for no good reason recently, and can't pinpoint it. I'm blessed in many ways, but have struggled to be positive lately. I'm just weary. Thank you for drawing me back to scripture.

  3. Discouraged is a good word to describe what I've been feeling as well. I'm not sure why it is difficult to be positive some days. I guess that it is just a part of life.

    Remembering what we are thankful for does help. Check out my new tab - feel free to share what you are thankful for. You are in my thoughts.
