I love this part of the passage. I love reflecting on the fact that the God of the universe says I am his child, and he will let nothing snatch me from his hands. Sometimes I get so weary that God makes me "lie down in green pastures." He gives me no other option than to just rest, and I can hear him calling, "Be still and know that I am God." What a wonderful thing to reflect on. He will revive you in your stillness, Jaime, and you will continue on this path he has called you to.

Sorry that you are tired. I always say that if we have faith, hope and love (Three things that Jesus left us according to the singer Alan Jackson), then we should be restored. Just my thought.

Again, thanks and blessings to you.

It is the thrust of my own post today–and after three sick days of sneezing, I needed the encouragement to be able to breathe again. But, aren't we all feeling the weight of the warfare?

Holding fast to our constant God and Lord of the battle.
Joy!
Kathy

I've been there many times before. You are holding onto beautiful hope, though, in those verses. This weariness is a refining fire, just as any other struggles we walk through. Maybe it teaches us to lean into Him more. To trust that if we step back to care for ourselves, the world (and the blog) will not implode!:-) But through this time, I know He is there protecting you and preparing you for the next chapter of the story He is writing.

I love these verses and you are right – there is so much one can take away! But simply the reassurance that He is there walking us through every trial that comes our way is what settles over me when I read it. No fear. Go forth.

Big hugs, my friend!!!
Lori

Thank you so much, Beth, I could certainly use prayer. Shingles. Oh No! You sweet lady. I am glad that I have women like you I can share in your stories and be blessed by you continuing to walk in faith through the difficulties. I will pray for you and thank you for the encouragement this morning! Glad you are here.

When you walk through the fire, you will not be scorched, Nor will the flame burn you." This passage stands out to me. No matter what we go through, God is always with us and lead the way.

Thanks for the encouraging words this morning, Reuven. The reason my message is uplifting and inspiring is because of Jesus. The message is the same because Jesus is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow. He is the rock and solid foundation on which I have my hope. And my greatest hope is that the readers of this page will know they, too can have this hope which only comes with believing that what Jesus did on the cross is for them. For me, although I have tried finding it in many other ways sadly, find my only solace in the sweet name of Jesus. That is my message and I am glad to know that my work of sharing God with others is of encouragement, that certainly is of encouragement to me. Thanks for stopping by and sharing with us every week.

Julie, you always have such great encouragement. I love your comment and reaffirmation of the truth. He will lead me through the hardest or times and I will stay strong with Him. Glad you are here and sharing your heart with us today.

Thanks for the encouragement as always, Melanie. I am so thankful that we can take our weary souls to Jesus. I am not sure where else you could rest your hope than the Living God and Author of our Lives. Thanks for stopping by, friend!
