Jesus Calling: January 25

Let My Love enfold you in the radiance of My Glory. Sit still in the Light of My Presence, and receive My Peace. These quiet moments with Me transcend time, accomplishing far more than you can imagine. Bring Me the sacrifice of your time, and watch to see how abundantly I bless you and your loved ones.
Through the intimacy of our relationship, you are being transformed from the inside out. As you keep your focus on Me, I form you into the one I desire you to be. Your part is to yield to My creative work in you, neither resisting it nor trying to speed it up. Enjoy the tempo of a God-breathed life by letting Me set the pace. Hold My hand in childlike trust, and the way before you will open up step by step.
Hebrews 13:15
English Standard Version

Through him then let us continually offer up a sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of lips that acknowledge his name.

2 Corinthians 3:18
English Standard Version

And we all, with unveiled face, beholding the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another. For this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit.

Psalm 73:23-24
English Standard Version
23 Nevertheless, I am continually with you; you hold my right hand.
24 You guide me with your counsel, and afterward you will receive me to glory.

My Prayer
Lord, sometimes I need to sit in the quiet of You and not feel like I have to be busy all the time or engaged in activity. Activity includes sitting in front of a screen. Sometimes I wonder if I am really allowing You to work in my life or if I stack my life with so much that You can barely get a piece of it. Help me be a child that just holds my parents hand and is led.

  1. "Your part is to yield to My creative work in you, neither resisting it nor trying to speed it up." During difficulty, all of me wants to zoom forward many months and be done with it! However, if we are truly embracing our needed changes, it requires us trusting His timing. The "gift" is His promise to accompany us through each trial forever. Thank you God.

    2. Yes even though you are on a rough uncharted road you must take it day by day in the Presence of the Lord. We cannot rush through the bad parts of life, or should I say, the challenging parts. They are here for a reason because our faith is being tested and our trust muscles must be exercised. Also we must lean on that fruit of the spirit, long suffering. Wait on the Lord. I sure do spend a lot of time waiting on the Lord and He has been so faithful to me. Praying for your dear brother. Much love.

    15. When you've stepped away from our Father in heaven for a season, for whatever reason, it takes so much mental struggle to reconnect. Then... after that terrible struggle, there is nothing as amazing as when you hear the words inside your soul, "My grace is sufficient for you."

  2. Lord I thank you for just being a loving Father. I thank you for just allowing me to trust you. I pray for guidance to continue to put you first. When you are first, I and those that I love will never be last. Thank you for the quiet time just to be at peace with myself because of You Father. I love you God. I thank You for the sacrifice of Your son Jesus Christ. I thank you for the blessing to be with my daughter as she and I grow closer in our walk with You. I thank you God for the many people that are praying for us in the mist of this government shutdown for no matter what man does, God you are in control. Lord thank you for the recovery of the young boy that was missing in NC returning to his family safe. God you are AWESOME and I give you all the honor, praise and glory. I celebrate the beauty of your being in my life. God is love!!

  5. Thinking about the idea of him working from the inside out and at his pace because he knows it can't be too fast or we will explode. Before I allowed him to do his work in me I feel like it was kind of ugly on the inside AND the outside. If he does his work on the inside it will take time for the outside to shine. Thank you God for your grace and your mercy as you do your perfect work in me from the inside out. I have to admit I'm really excited about the change and the effects that you will have on others through me as you do your work and clean out the inside so that the love of Christ can pour out of me into a lost and hurting world. God your ways are so amazing and so high I can't even begin to comprehend your power your strength and your soul changing love

    1. Many years ago I discovered the truth that you are discovering, Riseup. It was a beautiful discovery and as the inner transformation was occurring by enjoying a meaningful time alone with my Lord, I found my outer world began to fall into place quite naturally and everything got a whole lot easier. Even psychology has discovered that people who spend time in meditation/contemplation are more compassionate people because meditation affects the part of the brain from which compassion flows. I would add to that thought, meditation/contemplation reorders my soul (something that is beyond scientific measurement) back to God's original intention when He breathed His Spirit into me and gave me life. God be with you.

    3. Amen RiseUp, Bob and Audra. We must first be changed inside to be able to make a difference outside. Must get right with God ourselves before we can spread His message to others. We will never please Him completely but we should be in a state of grace to spread His message. We can examine our own hearts and ask God to cleanse us of our doubt and sin. God knows us deep inside and understands our daily struggles even to find the quiet time to sit at His feet. Amen GTT! His love is a soul changing love.

    1. Hello Unknown (but known by God!) Like everyone here, we were given or bought Sarah Young's Jesus Calling. Most found this blog by @PaytonFamily because they were at work and didn't read their copy that a.m., or maybe failed to bring it along on a biz or family trip. @PF started his daily reaction and posting of the JC devo in 2013.

      As you can see, the blessing is three-fold. 1. there is a way to discuss the devo topic/message and provide support to the "community" that has grown over the years 2. @PaytonFamily provided the entire referenced scripture vs. book/verse which is convenient to read all in one place 3. it is possible to copy and paste insights to share outside this group with family/friends.

      Welcome and Godspeed in your personal situation in need of prayer.

  10. Late to the party, but with all of you in prayer! The last two days, I was only able to read and run...to work, to appointments, etc. But, the peace of God passes all understanding and just knowing that my family and I have prayers and believing coming our way has helped immensely. Thank You!! My hubbie received a clean bill of health today - another x-ray in 3 weeks, but he's 'good to go!' So very thankful. And my family is pulling out the stops to help. Even my eldest, whom we've been praying for, and I had a lovely chat last night: no disagreements, just love. I'm learning how NOT to compromise the Truth and build on his strengths. So very thankful for this blog and for each of you. And, please know that when I read (even if I don't have time to comment), I am praying for you. "Servant Quilter" - I thought of you today when I heard the news that ALL Gov't employees will receive their next check. I knew they would be paid but what a relief to all 800,000 of them who lovingly and selflessly showed up for work! Talk about faith! God Bless each of you. So much changed when I INSISTED on the quiet time. "Bring Me the sacrifice of your time, and watch to see how abundantly I bless you and your loved ones." Often I am on the 'Night Watch,' - you know - hormones, can't sleep like the baby I used to be. I'm praying with you, relate to you and thank all of you for your prayers in the last week. What a difference it has made. Matthew 18:20 MadFox & Bob Malsack - you nail it SO many times for me. Peyton Family: I trust that you are reaping the rewards of your faithful blog. Look how many you have touched...years later. <3 (need my little emojies!). :)

  11. This is a day that You have blessed, place me in and granted me new mercy. Thank You.
    Not only am I alive, but I am in my sound mind, I opened my eyes and can see, my ears hear causing me to respond, my mouth opens, causing me to speak, my limbs are moving proving that I have mobility etc..Heavenly Father, my heart declares Your praise and say THANK YOU, THANK YOU LORD!

    1John 4:10 tells us that we love God because He first loved us. If we hope to attain real true intimacy witb the Father, we must look at Christ Jesus as our model. He is the model of intimacy with God because He and the Father are one and no relationship can get any closer than the oneness with God that Christ experienced. Jesus relationship with God is defined by love and obedience. It was in love that He came to earth to do His Father's will.
    It is natural for us to want to experience a close intimate relationship with God, but it's deeper than our wanting and emotions. That desire for a close intimacy with God should come from deep down in our souls and reflected by our actions. For us to do that, is to draw close to Him through righteousness. God will not draw near in intimacy with the unrighteous. James 4:8 says:"Draw near to God, and He will draw near to You. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double minded".

    2 Cor. 5:21 explains that those who have been cleansed by the blood of Christ and have received His righteousness at the cross, have hope of intimacy with God. We can also invite the Lord to draw near to us as His word says in Jeremiah 29:13, "You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart".

    If we struggle with questions and long to know God, want to be able to discern His voice and feel His Love in our hearts, lets ask Him to take us on a journey of understanding more fully what intimacy with Him looks like. We can also worship Him in Spirit and in truth, because God is Spirt (John 4:24) & through our worship, we declare the truth of who the Lord is.

    May our love for the Father draw us to an intimate relationship with Him so that we can be transformed from the inside out, hold onto His unchanging hands in trust and allow the Holy Spirit to lead the way before us, one step at a time.

    Blessings and Peace to all this day. May the Grace of God go before you and keep you safe, in Jesus name.

    1. So well written, Maplewood, NJ! We live in times that so many people are afraid of intimacy. Indeed, intimacy can be scary from the outside because it requires us to loose control of our self and allow love to come in and "move the furniture around" within our heart. We are all to some degree or another "control freaks" with our life. But why shouldn't we want to give up control to the love of God in our life because truth be told, none of us are doing a very good job with our life anyway. Behold, He stands at the door of our heart, lovingly knocking. There is nothing to be afraid of in letting Him in and there is everything to be gained. God be with you.

    2. Amen dear Maplewood! Our relationship with Him is the most important thing we have. It is never ending. It is a source of comfort, encouragement, love, renewal and sustanence. I couldn't get through one day without Him and He very well knows it. He brought me safely through this one and guided me to bear much fruit for His glory. He even found me some time to rest. Finished my Bible group homeword and I had a lot to cover. He always sits by my side as I work, and feeds me the words. Such a loving Father to provide all I need.
      Bob, I just loved your words. Thank you!!!

  14. Week of Prayer for Christian Unity (Day Eight) - scripture for the week Acts 27:18-28:10. Today's verse 28:7-10: Now in the neighbourhood of that place were lands belonging to the leading man of the island, named Publius, who received us and entertained us hospitably for three days. It so happened that the father of Publius lay sick in bed with fever and dysentery. Paul visited him and cured him by praying and putting his hands on him. After this happened, the rest of the people on the island who had diseases also came and were cured. They bestowed many honours on us and when we were about to sail, they put on board all the provisions we needed.

    A glorious ending to this story. Through life threatening storms, resignation to the circumstances, a shipwreck leaving everyone on board hungry, cold, and wet, and a snake bite, the story ends with the gospel being preached, many lives being impacted to the glory of God, and a feeling of unity between all the people. Oh, the joy there was in heaven!

    Let us affirm: "There is one body and one Spirit,...one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of all who is above all and through all and in all." (Ephesians 4:4-6) Let us go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything that Jesus commanded us and to always remember, He is with us forever and ever. (Matthew 28:19-20). This incident that Luke has included in the writing of the book of Acts is all of this seen in action. May it be no less in each of us. God be with you.

    I am grateful for this blog (thank you, Chris) for it provided me with the opportunity to reflect and more fully grasp the passage for this Week of Prayer for Christian Unity. When I write to others about my experience in the Word, I am able to more fully capture it within my soul. If it blesses you in the process, I am further blessed. Thank you, everyone, for listening. You are a blessing!

  15. YOU are a blessing, Bob! And each and every one of you who share. Thank you, for your prayers. And, please keep them coming. Also please add a family near to us, who were in a head on car crash. The husband was killed instantly and his wife is in a coma. The family had just lost a brother this month (the visitation we went to on my hub's birthday). This dear family... I did hear today that Connie is making some signs of waking up. I can't imagine waking up to that. Please, pray with my hub and me for this family.
    Yesterday was taxing - the homeless and mentally ill were in my office, coughing on me, sneezing...I have a very small office. I spent today in pjs until 1:00 and finally made myself get showered and dressed and out of the house. I stopped by one of my son's to visit grandbabies, who I was sure would lift my heavy heart. And, of course (one was with his mommy at the store), my little grandson did. I helped my 5 year old GS clean up his room. We sang and did it quickly. I left after breaking a sweat and STILL getting hugs. :)
    I find myself ashamed that I allow the adversary to so impact my heart and mind some days. I have so much for which to be thankful. I find myself reading and reading and today it was as if I had a Word-Proof vest on - it just wouldn't penetrate. Until I gave. Once I reached out to bless someone else, the dam burst and I once again, hopped on here and re-read all of the posts. We are a mighty family because we humble ourselves to our mighty God. I thank all of you...you remind me why I continue to hop on this page every day and when I don't, I miss it.
    Matthew 11:28-30. He will give us rest. I ask that He helps me snap out of this self-pity mode I've been in and recognize all of my many blessings. Thank you - each of you - for continuing to remind me. I can't read your words (the Word) and not realize how blessed I am.

  16. JOINING INTO PRAYER FOR CHRISTIAN UNITY, 2021
    Day 8, Reconciling with all of creation: “So that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be complete” (John 15:11)
    Scripture
    Colossians 1:15-20, In him all things hold together
    Mark 4:30-32, As small as a mustard seed
    Meditation
    The hymn to Christ in the epistle to the Colossians invites us to sing the praise of God’s salvation, which encompasses the entire universe. Through the crucified and risen Christ, a path of reconciliation has been opened up; creation too is destined for a future of life and peace.

    With the eyes of faith, we see that the kingdom of God is a reality that is very close but still very small, hardly visible – like a mustard seed. However, it is grow- ing. Even in the distress of our world the Spirit of the Risen One is at work. He en- courages us to become involved – with all people of good will – in tirelessly seeking justice and peace, and ensuring the earth is once again a home for all creatures.

    We participate in the work of the Spirit so that creation in all its fullness may con- tinue to praise God. When nature suffers, when human beings are crushed, the Spirit of the risen Christ – far from allowing us to lose heart – invites us to become part of his work of healing.

    The newness of life that Christ brings, however hidden, is a light of hope for many. It is a wellspring of reconciliation for the whole of creation and contains a joy that comes from beyond ourselves: “so that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be complete.” (John 15:11)

    Prayer
    Thrice-holy God, we thank you for having created and loved us. We thank you for your presence in us and in creation. May we learn to look upon the world as you look upon it, with love. In the hope of this vision, may we be able to work for a world where justice and peace flourish, for the glory of your name. Amen.

Your illustration made me think of this JC warroom blog and our JC Family of believers, who keep God at the forefront of the helm and whose foundation and daily goals personify, activate, and release GOD and His LOVE to each other, with regard only to the heart and soul and needs of the person, rather than all the check boxes in which the world puts us.
      Love is very refreshing, and it is in infinite supply from a Generous Giver, and its free.

  22. Today, I read all of Psalm 73.
    I could have written it.
    Psalm 73 Living Bible
    73 How good God is to Israel—to those whose hearts are pure. 2 But as for me, I came so close to the edge of the cliff! My feet were slipping and I was almost gone. 3 For I was envious of the prosperity of the proud and wicked. 4 Yes, all through life their road is smooth![a] They grow sleek and fat. 5 They aren’t always in trouble and plagued with problems like everyone else, 6 so their pride sparkles like a jeweled necklace, and their clothing is woven of cruelty! 7 These fat cats have everything their hearts could ever wish for! 8 They scoff at God and threaten His People. How proudly they speak! 9 They boast against the very Heavens, and their words strut through the earth.

    10 And so God’s People are dismayed and confused and drink it all in. 11 “Does God realize what is going on?” they ask. 12 “Look at these men of arrogance; they never have to lift a finger—theirs is a life of ease; and all the time their riches multiply.”

    13 Have I been wasting my time? Why take the trouble to be pure? 14 All I get out of it is trouble and woe—every day and all day long! 15 If I had really said that, I would have been a traitor to Your People. 16 Yet it is so hard to explain it—this prosperity of those who hate the Lord. 17 Then one day I went into God’s Sanctuary to meditate and thought about the future of these evil men. 18 What a slippery path they are on—suddenly God will send them sliding over the edge of the cliff and down to their destruction: 19 an instant end to all their happiness, an eternity of terror. 20 Their present life is only a dream! They will awaken to the truth as one awakens from a dream of things that never really were!

    21 When I saw this, what turmoil filled my heart! 22 I saw myself so stupid and so ignorant; I must seem like an animal to you, O God. 23 But even so, You Love me! You are holding my right hand! 24 You will keep on guiding me all my life with Your Wisdom and Your Counsel, and afterwards receive me into the Glories of Heaven![b] 25 Whom have I in Heaven but You? And I desire no one on earth as much as You! 26 My health fails; my spirits droop, yet God remains! He is the strength of my heart; He is mine forever!

    27 But those refusing to worship God will perish, for He destroys those serving other gods.

    28 But as for me, I get as close to Him as I can! I have chosen Him, and I will tell everyone about the wonderful ways He rescues me.

  27. Hello JC family. I haven't posted in awhile. Seem to be going through a slump, struggling with just going thru the motions of life and just feeling numb. Searching to reignite the spark of hunger and desire to seek God and his will for many of life's challenges and circumstances. Struggling with getting hormone balance under control through early menopause too. Don't mean to be a downer, just sharing with this sweet faithful family of believers. I still read and pray for each of you, but need some of your prayers to listen and hear God. I just started an amazing study with a group of ladies, Discerning the voice of God by Priscilla Shirer. Already feeling encouraged. Also missing my dad alot lately. (He passed in 2018 during his favorite running race Bloomsday. Just before the finish line.) He crossed over to his heavenly finish. I finally went to get a tattoo on mY right forearm this week. It's beautiful. A runner with heartbeat symbols that go into a flatline then into beautiful butterflies. I have a pic on Facebook (robmindyrowe). It just has me contemplating my dad's influence in my life and his strong faith in God. As in today's reading, I'm seeking God's peace in the stillness and wanting to hear and obey his leading. Much love and continued prayers to each of you. You are all still kept track of in mY prayer notebook. Mindy

Because you are so unsettled in your spirit is exactly where God wants you, He is the first to know when any of His children is off kilter in their walk, a lamb wandering off to the side, His staff is at work at this very moment to gently prod you back where you are safe from the wolves of temptations. Believe that He is chasing after you dear one. Love the sharing of how your father passed from this life's finish line and into his eternal rest. He finished the race set before him here on earth! Hallelujah!

    4. I can understand your slump, disconnect, and overall numbness, Mindy, and I'm sorry you're going through this. I've definitely felt similarly at times as I bet many in our JC family have. Not a comfortable or comforting place, for sure, but I see you are still making forward motion with joining that study group. That's so great and is most definitely taking a step forward! Any size of the step forward is still forward motion and progress. Good for you! Be kind to yourself, though, giving yourself grace for all you're feeling and dealing with right now. May you feel God's hand in yours as you navigate your Tuesday, Mindy. Not that He hasn't been holding your hand each day already but hoping you truly feel Him today. In Jesus' name, amen!

  28. Dear Mindy. Praying always for you and Chloe and Camden. Believe that God knows your beautiful heart. I know how hard it is to be go through premenopause and menopause. All the sweating and the emotional ups and downs. It was a very hard time. We all go through it. Part of being a woman. Wow you got a tattoo on your arm as a tribute to your Dad! I'm sure he is smiling down. Love never ends. It just changes. Running has always been so important to me so I understand your Father's passion for it. At least God called him when he was doing something he loved. You will surely be with him again. We all go through times in our lives when things seem a bit flat. And then the little Godwinks happen and get us right back on track. Thank you so much for your prayers. That means a lot to me. God's peace is surrounding you at this very moment. Rest in it dear sister. You will get through this valley time and the best is yet to come. Blessed Assurance. You belong to the Most High and you are dearly loved.

    So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. Isaiah 41:10

    2. In our bleakest moments, He IS there with us. It is indeed hard at times to actually feel Him because we are caught up in our turmoil and despair. Something Jan said reminded me of such an awesome song by Casting Crowns. This song has helped me many times when I feel overwhelmed by life's circumstances. When I listen to the lyrics, I literally feel an exhale of my entire body. Like God is hugging me letting me know He's got this and is bringing me through. Here is the link:

  32. Requesting prayer dear JC Warriors.
    I am 73, I retired rather late in life, at 71, and closed our business down.
    Contacted by a former work associate late yesterday, I've been asked to consider supplying CAD (Computer Aided Design) services to the company he works for, and to lead teams of engineers in Virtual Builds. (This was my area of expertise for over 20 years, previously Mechanical Engineering) It's a highly challenging area, extremely intense and technical. The mental focus required is quite challenging and tiring. To be quite honest I was rather relieved to give it up when I retired. I know how I feel about it, but I need to know Heaven's answer. My Lord see the days, weeks, months etc ahead, I don't. Is this unlooked-for request, of Him or not? Is it part of Heaven's purposes or a distraction?
    I'm not looking forward to setting up a business again with all the legality required. But if it's of the Lord, I'll do it. Please pray; I'm not happy to take the plunge without hearing His word on it. I need to give an answer within a day or do. Thank you JC Blog Brothers and Sisters in Christ.

      Praying for discernment of His Purpose for you, Peter.
      If it's not a definite yes from Him, then it is probably a no or wait. What helps me is saying a prayer for discernment with my closed bible on my lap, then closing my eyes, opening my bible to any page. The answer was fulfilled in my reading.
      Prayerful blessings for clarity from the One who gives Us purpose and leads us. in Jesus' Name. Amen

      Philippians 4:6-7 "Do not be anxious about anything, but in everthing by prayer and supplication with thanksgivings let your requests be known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus."

      Isaiah 30-21 "Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, "This is the way, walk in it."

      And, we WAIT on the Lord with GREAT EXPECTATIONS!!! And remember, the Lord has such GREAT LOVE for you and is absolutely crazy about you!!!!

  33. Praying for you Peter. Thanking God for delivering the support you need for a timely decision. I understand that the skills we may have offered during our more formative work lives might still be desired by others. And retirement from a long working life comes with challenges unique to that separation of day to day purpose. The thing I like best about retirement is that I don't have to do anything in a hurry, and I am thanking God for that. I sense that your skills would be welcomed without the pressure of time, and I will be praying for clarity for your decision. 🙏♥️

    1. I'm praying for you, Peter. Tough decisions. I retired on Nov 1 and was asked back on Nov9. My Dear Hub said, "Guinness World Record's shortest retirement - 8 days!" The # 8 in Scripture is "New Beginnings." So, I took it for what it was. I wasn't ready to retire. If I went back, I'd get SSA and a salary - we could do things to our house that need to be done, pay off debt, etc. So far, so good, though there are days I'm SO TIRED. Then I remember - I did this of my own accord, with the help of God. I'll persevere and when it's too much - I'm done. I saw it as an open door, but it's between me and God as to how long it lasts. I will be praying for you. Mixed Blessings. God will speak to you. That's my prayer. God Speed, Brother!

  35. Today's devotion ends with: Hold My hand in childlike trust, and the way before you will open up step by step. Yesterday's MRI went well because of all the prayers and because I never let go of His Hand, not for a second. We are all going through our own valley times, but I have seen so many sweet spots of light that God is blessing me with. So many brothers and sisters that are praying for me as I pray for them. God knows our hearts better than we do. When I'm asked how I am, I can honestly say I'm doing well, thank God! Spending so much time with my good husband is also a blessing. We are enjoying the ordinary sweet moments in our days. He knows sometimes I get concerned about the future, but he quickly reminds me everything is going fine and I'm being a real trouper. I keep telling him that Jesus is healing me. By His stripes, I am healed. As long as He is by my side, all will be well. Got my 3rd infusion on the 27th and I am ready for it. Please pray for my younger brother Tommy who just tested positive for Covid. He has cold symptoms and feels very drained. May God heal him completely and keep the rest of his family negative.
    Thank You Father for this in Jesus' Name. Amen
    Hope everyone receives all that God is offering them. Peace is at the top of the list and He has an inexhaustible supply. He is the best Healer, Comforter, Guide and Guardian. So blessed to be a sheep in His flock. Have a special day in the Lord.

Wait on the LORD, and keep His way, and He shall exalt you to inherit the land; when the wicked are cut off, you shall see it. (Psalm 37:34). Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for Him; do not fret because of him who prospers in his way, because of the man who brings wicked schemes to pass. Cease from anger, and forsake wrath; do not fret--it only causes harm. For evildoers shall be cut off; but those that wait on the LORD, they shall inherit the earth. (Psalm 37:7-9).

The moment I made the decision I was enveloped in His Peace; something like basking in warm sunshine on a cold day. The demands of life since then have proven the wisdom of that decision.

My days are full of my Casework - helping others, which brings me joy. Yet, after another year, the appts, the various Drs; all of my 'To Do List,' I wonder how long I can do this...juggling so many roles. I'd love to know how you came to your decision and how it has blessed you.

  48. Today I go to court for what might be the final time. I have been dealing with this court issue for close to a year and a half. My faith has grown tremendously during this time. Yet, the anxiety is still overwhelming. I pray that his peace covers me, and that I receive an outcome that works out in my family's favor. In Jesus name I pray Amen!
