Scripture Journaling

 

Print out and glue to the page.

 

Watch night service was awesome! The Word spoken was received and planted deep in my heart. I was blessed by the fellowship. I can't imagine bringing in the New Year any other way. Did I say the fellowship was awesome!

 

I was praying about my One Word for 2014. I chose the word Hope. I understood why I chose it. Yet, each time I would proclaim it or write about it, I could only whisper....to myself. There is nothing wrong with the word. I need Hope in the Lord in my life. But it simply wasn't my word.



 

Then God....chose another word.....TRUST! 

I heard Him. I felt Him.  

I learned to never step ahead of God. It won't work. I have experienced living in the moment  as a way to ease my anxieties. But by living in the present moment, I was able to hear a right now Word. I am so elated I can barely write! I am always in awe of how the Lord works.

 

Prayer: Most Kind Father, You alone are worthy of my praise and my worship. I am nothing without You. I have learned to trust You more than I have my entire life. Lord, grant me wisdom and courage to move when You say "Move and to speak when You say , "Speak."

I am so grateful that You have placed people in my life who loved me in my brokenness and are happy now that you have made me whole. I praise You! In Jesus Name. Amen.
