I am taking care of you. Trust Me at all times. Trust Me in all circumstances. Trust Me with all your heart. When you are weary and everything seems to be going wrong, you can still utter these four words: "I trust You, Jesus." By doing so, you release matters into My control, and you fall back into the security of My everlasting arms.
Before you arise from your bed in the morning, I have already arranged the events of your day. Every day provides many opportunities for you to learn My ways and grow closer to Me. Signs of My Presence brighten even the dullest day when you have eyes that really see. Search for Me as for hidden treasure. I will be found by you.
Proverbs 3:5
English Standard Version (ESV)
Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
and do not lean on your own understanding.
Thought: These words challenge believers to put more confidence in God's ability than in their own, to not try to analyze and figure out every detail themselves, but to place their belief in God's wisdom, love and strength; to lean on God instead of relying on themselves or anyone else.
Deuteronomy 33:27
English Standard Version (ESV)
The eternal God is your dwelling place,Thought: As we learn to depend upon the eternal God, we discover that His everlasting arms are never exhausted. His everlasting arms are always sufficient for our unknown future and unfathomable present needs.
and underneath are the everlasting arms.
And he thrust out the enemy before you
and said, ‘Destroy.’
Jeremiah 29:13-14
English Standard Version (ESV)
You will seek me and find me, when you seek me with all your heart. I will be found by you, declares the Lord, and I will restore your fortunes and gather you from all the nations and all the places where I have driven you, declares the Lord, and I will bring you back to the place from which I sent you into exile.
Thought: Searching for God with all your heart is intimately connected with honoring, examining and obeying His Word.
My Prayer
Thank You for knowing my days. Thank You for knowing me so well Lord. Lord, I go to doctor's because I want them to tell me what is wrong with me. And yet Lord, You remind me that You know everything about me already. Lord, I want to be bold for you throughout the day. Help me to realize that You have ordered my day and there are people in my path that need to know You. Lord, make me the bold one. Help me to start up conversations with people. I pray that my growth in You would come by experience and not simply sitting and reading the Word of God. It is important to read, but it is more important to live it.

ReplyDeleteDear Father help me to continue to Trust In You ALWAYS! Jesus I Trust in You! Amen
ReplyDeleteLord I thank you that we can put our trust in you. You are sovereign and your ways are perfect. We have learned in the world we can't always trust, but in you we can. You are not a man that can lie and we thank you and praise you for that. Your promises to us are eternal and won't ever change we can depend on you just as believers through the ages could. You are our rock and our salvation, our Lord and master. But unlike other masters you call us friend. You desire an intimate relationship with each of us. Thank you for seeing us as the apple of your eye. How truly blessed we are to have you as our God. Please Lord help us to feed the truth into others as the truth of your love has been fed into us. As Jesus said to Peter, "Feed my Sheep" he is calling each of us in our own sheep pasture to feed his sheep. What has he put in your hand? This is what God has given you as a tool to be used and become Jesus in the flesh and feed his sheep. Thank you Payton Family and everyone who adds to this blog. I read it and reread it through out my day. It's wonderful to have on my phone while I rock the little one or as I'm riding in the car. I still don't understand why I can't post from my phone anymore or why my google account won't let me post at all. Each of you are in my prayers. By the way madfox I got the book you referenced about Joseph, Very good read. All that for another post when I can sit down at my computer again. Until then Love in Christ Jesus your Sister, TERRI p.s. Please keep posting Norah, madfox, Jan , sassy Mom, Bob, unknown, Randy, many anonymous posts, Cece, Trusting the Lord, I could keep listing people. whether you post once or give an Amen we are all part of this assembly of believers and thank you for posting because we are lifting each other up and edifying Christ and each other. With Love TERRI
ReplyDeleteGod bless you, Terri. Thank you for your beautiful prayer and commentary!
DeleteTerri, thanks for the kind words. The book on Joseph gave me some real perspective on God using bad circumstances for good. For those interested, and I realize there a many good Christian books, but this one helps you if you're in a particularly bad season of life and you think God isn't hearing your prayers. Author is: Alistair Begg, and the title is: The Hand of God.
DeleteThank you Anonymous for sharing. Who indeed is the sheep in our path today. Our walk with the Lord must be shared with others to produce fruit, to bring glory to the Lord & to help build the kingdom. Blessings Terri
DeleteAmen, Sister TERRI.
DeleteAmen . Please share the author of the book Joseph I will try and look for it in Kenya.
DeleteBeautiful prayer sweet Terri, Thank you!
DeleteMadFox, I believe God is using your difficult circumstances for good. You are softening a lot of hearts by your strong Witness. Praying always for God's healing in your body, mind and spirit.
Min Ahadi, Mad🦊 posted it above. The book is "The Hand of God" by Alistair Begg. ♥️
DeleteThankyou Father without you Iam nothing
ReplyDeleteI trust you with my heart.
Thank you Lord that I can trust you when I call on your name in good and bad times. I trust that you have the best game plan for my life, help me to lay it all at the feet of the cross and leave it there. In Jesus precious name, Amen!
ReplyDeleteThank you Terri. I too read and reread the posts throughout the day. I love having this community of believers.
ReplyDeleteI'm thankful for a quiet, Sat. morning to take it easy and not rush into the day. I made myself laugh b/c I read, "When you are weary," as "When it is dreary!" That it is today, rainy, gray and perfect for a day of resting, healing from the long, hard week. Trusting you, Lord with all the things that 'hit' my head throughout the course of a day. That I remember to confess my trust in You. I'm thankful for all of the readers on this blog and join them in prayer for their adult kids, issues, concerns, journeys. Requesting prayers for the healing of my knee which is acting up and for the smooth transition as I switch phones. EEEK! So thankful for my son who thinks it's 'no big deal at all - I can help you and Dad!' All of this "great" technology can stress me out but, again, I will trust you, Father, to guide us and keep me calm. Bodies have a hard time healing when we're stressed! Prayers for you and your daughters, Sassy Mom and Jj (we go through that periodically with all of ours); and for all of our JC Family as we exercise our privilege of trusting our Savior, as He so gently reminds us to do.
ReplyDeleteYour knee my foot Norah😀. Did too much yesterday, now I'm paying for it. I'LL pray for your knee, you pray for my foot, deal?
DeleteYou've got it Jan! Getting ready to put my 8 hr. Icy/Hot sleeve on my knee and soak up the prayers and blessings. <3
DeleteJan how is your foot doing and Norah how is your knee? Lord thank you for these wonderful sisters , please touch their bodies so that they can experience healing. We thank you God because you are our healer .
DeletePraying with you sweet Min Ahadi. Thank you Father for healing dear Norah and Jan and bringing them back to perfect health, and also heal Min Ahadi's dear Mom. Praying in the Name of Jesus.
DeleteReading back to Norah & I & our issues, I can honestly say that the foot has never been better, thanks to all the prayers. So dear Norah, how about you?, How's that knee. Mine got repaired😂!
DeleteHow blessed I am that God led me to this fellowship! Thank you to all for lifting up my days! Lord, keep safe all your children. Your will be done this day, not mine for I trust You Jesus!
ReplyDeleteThank you Jesus for our team of believers and my new friends in Christ! I pray that I keep my focus on the present as I turn the future over to you and enjoy all of the blessings you lay before me in this day. Thanks for your peace and presence. Lets make today another adventure!

Morning glory and honor to You Loving Father, Thank You for a new day and for all You have prepared for me. As I go about my day, please remind me to trust in Your ability and not my own. Help me to focus on You and Your power and teach me to see my trials from Your perspective. I have faith in Your ability to fulfill Your promises to me. Let Your will be done. Thank You Lord for fighting all my seen and unseen battles, in Jesus name.
The Bible tells us to: "Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding" (Prov. 3:5). Someone might ask, how do I trust God in all circumstances especially during hard times? There are many reasons for us to trust God. Let’s start by having a relationship with HIM and making that a priority, by CHOOSING to trust God, by remembering all that God has done for you before, by walking by faith and not by sight, by calling out to trust Him even when it makes no sense, by trusting and not waiting for a feeling of confidence, and by releasing control so that you can get to a deeper place of trust!
It is very important to keep record of all the things God has done in your life and the lives of your love ones. The Word says: “O my people, trust in him at all times. Pour out your heart to him, for God is our refuge”(Psalm 62:8). Our Father has huge shoulders and is always waiting for His children to CRY on Him with anything they are facing. We see in the Bible that many men and women cried out to the Lord. The book of Psalms is full of David’s crying out to the Lord, in Luke 40, Martha cried to the Lord for her sister to help her. But the most encouraging, is when Jesus cried out to His Father, “…..let this cup pass from me….”(Matt 26:39). We should be brutally honest with God, because He is big enough, powerful, and gracious enough to handle any emotion we might have, whether its anger or compassionate complaint. In Psalm 77, Asaph wrestles and cries to God, but then he remembers how God has helped him in the past and then turned his trust right back to God! Hagar through her seemingly impossible situation, learned a life-changing lesson in trust. Her story gives us all hope today as we face life’s trials.
We should trust Him to bring good from a disappointing day, disappointing seasons, the unexpected, despite our feelings and even when we don’t understand. We should understand however, that what matters to us, matters even more so to God. He is with us always. He said: “For I know the plans I have for you,...plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future” (Jeremiah. 29:11). Now that’s a Promise!
We have a choice here, we either believe Him and the Word or we don’t. It’s ALL or nothing! Let’s not be like the 5 foolish virgins, but run the race of trusting in our Father like the 5 WISE virgins (they were prepared, because they trusted the Bridegroom was coming)!
Heavenly Father, we thank You for who You are in our lives. Thank You that You are the God of the impossible. Please Teach us how to walk in faith and in Your ability to breakthrough every obstacle in our lives, just like You did for Hagar, David, Asaph and others, in Jesus name we ask.
Blessings and peace to all.
Maplewood NJ
I'm not a crier yet I have cried more than ever in these past weeks; I know I'm not alone. Thank you, Maplewood, for assuring me that Our Father has huge shoulders and that his son our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ has the whole world in his hands. Jesus I trust in you.
DeleteDearest Maplewood, God has given you a great gift to teach and to preach and you do use the Words He has given you to encourage us. God bless you always for filling me up with hope and peace even in this terrible time of the Pandemic. I love my JC Family and thank you all for giving me so much inspiration and fellowship. I have been reading the Jesus Calling book for many years and it speaks to my heart, but when I read all the comments and replies, it fills me with so much joy. We are all in this together. Alone, but together. I cherish you always.
DeleteThanks Maplewood. I am so encouraged ! Be blessed
DeleteSweet Maplewood, I am trusting Him with my life, my family, my Mom and my future. “O my people, trust in him at all times. Pour out your heart to him, for God is our refuge”. He already knows my heart intimately and understands me like none other. I pray for our family hear and for your healing and for your Mom's faith. I have seen His faithfulness so many times and I am ready to spread His good news and great deeds to anyone who is hungry to hear the reason for my joy and peace. How blessed we are to have your wonderful encouragement every day. You always teach me and you lift me high. Please know how grateful I am that God has guided you to do His work in our JC Family.
DeleteTrusting you are praying for me as I pray for JC Warriors. So uplifting and encouraging to read comments from my brothers and sisters in Christ. Lord teach me to love You and trust YOU more.
ReplyDeleteThank You for your peace, presence and blessings.
Thanks Sassy Mom - praying for you also. I so agree with you that all the posts and commentary are heaven sent. I trust in you, Jesus! KS
DeleteThank you Sassy Mom you are always in my prayers, all my JC Warriors. May God keep you and yours safe. Jesus I trust in you; come holy spirit.
DeleteAs the hymn sings, "Blessed by the tie that binds our hearts in Christian love; the fellowship of kindred minds is like to that above." And the next 5 verses go on to speak of our praying for each other, one of the most godly acts if not the most we have been given the privilege of doing. When you pray, Sassy Mom, I feel it.
DeleteYou are always in my prayers dear Sassy Mom. Thank you for your prayers. Yes Bob! It is a blessing to pray for each other. God hears every one.
DeleteThanks Bob for the hymn reference. Didn't realize this hymn was in the play "Our Town"
Delete♥️🎶 Link https://youtu.be/P6lzTJfWdmk
Isaiah 43:1 “Don't fear, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name; you are Mine.” He knows the enemy uses fear to defeat and to discourage.
ReplyDeleteAmen!
DeleteAll of us are falling back into the security of His everlasting arms! What a moment by moment walk. Happy Belated Birthdays to TJ, Maplewood and Bob. So many times I went on to wish you a Happy Birthday or comment on various posts, only to be interrupted (pleasantly so) by calls or little voices outside, next door. We caught up over the fence - safely distanced but our hearts were so warmed.
ReplyDeleteGood to read your posts, MadFox (missed you) and Bob and Maplewood - your words always stir my heart, as did yours, Brittanyomb - so many wonderful posts that I returned to over the last few days along with Peyton Family prayers from years past that are so relevant today.
Loveconquersall - you and your family are in my prayers, as are all of you on here - our JC Family - so precious.
Looking back over our posts causes me to think, 'This time last year,' and what we will be saying this time next year, God willing. He will deliver us from this silent enemy - in fact, I believe it is already done, we are all just catching up with Him. He knows every fiber of our beings and how things will play out. Our job is to trust him.
We used to tell our children when they were little to, "Trust, Remember and Obey." Trust in the Lord with all of your heart. Remember His Word, which he placed above His own name. Obey His Word and enjoy the results. He has gone before each of us, this day and our days to come. As I pray for my sister-in-love, Jinny, I think of these words and how she is trusting Him each step of the way.
Just saw your note, Sassy Mom and I thank you, for you are much loved and prayed for! :)
God Bless each of you - I will be reading and praying throughout the day.
Was blessed by your post, Norah. Yes, have thought of the same, "what will we be thinking when we read these posts next year?" I'll hazard a guess. As you said, He was going before us and we didn't need to worry as it is so easy to do with everyone fretting around us. And we will see that He was and is faithful to His promises to His chosen ones. We will see again, indeed, He loves us beyond our understanding and comprehension. We will give thanks! These posts over the years will get better and better as we see God more clearly. God be with you.
DeleteBob, I believe when we read these posts next year, we will rejoice because God has made it all right and much better. Our faith will be strengthened, our love will be sincere, our thanksgiving will be genuine, and our path will be established. Looking forward to that golden time. God bless you and Norah for your words that lift me.
DeleteThank you Norah and Bob! One year later and I still believe the best is yet to come because God is still in charge. I know this past year has been difficult but it has strengthened our faith and we are still coming to Him with praise and thanksgiving. He is guiding our path and I will continue to trust in Him above all.
DeleteNorah, I just simply love you. You make me laugh; you bring me joy.
ReplyDeleteA year later, I'm seeing this Dear Loveconquersall! I love you too and I'm glad I can make you laugh....what fun! Praying for you and yours and that all is well with you.
DeleteI love you both! You are only sweet light to me.
DeleteAnd you are to me, Jeanne! Thank you for your prayers for my DH and his purple toes. I offered to tape them yesterday but he didn't want me too. Trusting they are healing! :)
DeleteThanks Norah! I sure understand. My husband probably wouldn't let me tape his toes together if they were broken. He hurt his back lifting a box of wine yesterday. He wanted to play golf today and I said: "Maybe you shouldn't" But he did anyway and now he's hurting. All we can do is try to take care of them. God will have to do the rest.
DeleteI can relate to the love of golf. Prayers for your hubby! ⛳
Delete"Create in me a clean heart, O God, and put a new and right spirit within me." (Psalm 51:10)
ReplyDelete(Matthew 11:25-30) Jesus can see that the words He had just spoken had cut into me in the depths of my being. Thus, He looks to His Heavenly Father, to give thanks that I have been impacted by the these truths. Even though I am not the "brightest bulb in the chandelier", I have understood what Jesus is saying. Jesus gives thanks to God that believing isn't based on a high IQ but rather a heart that is open to hearing which anyone can have. He goes on to say to me, that He is one with the Father and the Father is one with Him. Therefore to know Him is to know God. To help me grasp this He draws upon something with which I am very familiar, two oxen yoked together in plowing a field. I understand that oxen have a yoke placed on them by the farmer so they can pull together to accomplish the farmer's work. With love filling His eyes, He invites me to be yoked to Him so we can work together for the plowing of the Father's land. As I am thinking about that for a moment, He brings home His point by saying, "Life is easier being yoked to me than to not be so." With those words, He smiles broadly at me and I realize that to be yoked to Him means to be in love with Him as He is in love with me. Why would I chose anything else? I say yes to His invitation.
There is nothing more to say.
With love,
Bob
Yes, we love Jesus and I feel so very in love with him calling Jesus more than ever and it feels so good. Thank you, Bob. Thank you Our Father in heaven for your precious gift..Sweet Jesus, everlasting love and mercy.
DeleteBob - "to be yoked to Him means to be in love with Him as He is in love with me" HALLELUJAH! AMEN!!!
DeleteHe is our one true love. The love that never fails. The love that never dies. The love that never fades. And He loves us so much that He carries our burdens.
Delete“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
Beautiful reminder related to this verse from Bethel music ✝️

DeleteTHE WAY OF THE CROSS
ReplyDeleteYesterday I posted my disappointment in seeing less and less observance of Good Friday by the Church over the years. Today, let me speak of something positive I have seen over that time, the use of the Stations of the Cross in Protestant churches. The Stations, anchored well in Catholicism, is a wonderful spiritual discipline to be practiced during Holy Week. It enables the believer to slowly walk the Via Dolorosa (Way of Suffering) that Jesus walked and to experience more fully Jesus’ sorrow on that Friday. Pope John Paul II made some revisions to the Stations which allowed for the Protestant churches to be more comfortable with the practice. Both versions are worthy of following.
I would encourage you to spend time with the Stations of the Cross, especially if there are no Good Friday services that you are able to attend. Where I am presently in TN, the churches have come together to provide a walk through the town with the Stations along the way. Very creative that promotes unity at the same time. Something I have used very effectively many times is going online to find a Stations experience that provides scripture, commentary, and art work for each station. I have taken my laptop to a private space and sat for a length of time in contemplation of the Stations.
Again brothers & sisters in Christ, I encourage you not to take a detour around the cross to find an easier path to Easter for it is more so on the cross than the empty tomb that He shows the magnitude of His Love for us. Be blessed! With love, Bob
Amen Bob! Thank you for this great advice to contemplate on the Stations of the cross. I remember doing it about 10 years ago with the school I went to. But unfortunately I was bored during the service because I was not a believer at that time. It's not too late to do it seriously now, thanks for sharing this.
DeleteAnd yes, let us not forget that we must go through Friday and Saturday in order to get to the Resurrection on Sunday.
God bless you!
Blessings from France
Thank you Bob for sharing that information. I will need to look into it more. Peace be with you 🙏.
DeleteSo true Bob. My Mom and I were attending the Stations of the Cross virtually this Friday and it just brought us right into the Passion and His suffering and His love for us. We talked a lot about it afterwards. It is an important part of Holy Week. I am going to be singing in the Choir at all services, and I hope I will glorify God. This Holy Thursday I'll be the only choir member present so He will sing with me. May we all seek and find His special message to each of us and see His guiding Hand in our lives. I always pray: Make me a better person. I just want to give Him glory by my words and deeds. I know sometimes, I try to get everything on my list done and forget the most important thing which is pleasing Him and staying in His presence. But He knows I'm trying.
DeleteAhhhhhh! BOB, You bring back childhood memories of my Family's Annual Good Friday walking pilgrimage to 14 different churches to say and contemplate a different station of the cross at each church. Also, memories of kissing the feet of a replica of Jesus on The Cross, in Thanksgiving for the walk His Feet took for me. After 3 pm, we would eat 9 greens cooked together without meat. As I recall, the entire day was very solemn and quiet, no tv, no playing, no toys etc. No fighting with my brothers ;)
DeleteIn my so-called Adult life, prior to the pandemic, I did it on a bus ride. This year you inspired me to find a virtual service. Thanks for nudging me Bob, to not try an end run around The Quarterback this year and blame it on the Pandemic! Love You, Brie
Amen Bob, nailed it again. Thank you.
DeleteThe entire Holy Week is a time to truly journey with Jesus to the cross. Can we at least travel with him in thanksgiving? Holy Thursday is so moving with the washing of the apostles feet, Good Friday passion and solemnity of the day, Saturday blessing of the food and Easter Vigil-bringing others into the church, AND THE RESURRECTION EASTER SUNDAY Amen! Our entire faith is based on His resurrection, conquering sin and redemption for all. These traditions bring me closer, and renews my faith and relationship with God. The gift of the cross and resurrection is paramount in my faith. Thank you Jesus. YES Jesus I trust in You! Amen.
Yes ABC. Holy Week is a time to walk with Him through the last days and renew our faith and strengthen our relationship with Him. We are saved by the Cross and His blood, and we serve a Risen Lord. Thank You Jesus!
DeleteFather, You always know what I need and You never tire of providing for me. I can count on You for the peace and joy I need to sustain me. I don't deserve everything that You give me, but that doesn't stop You. Your giving is as endless as Your love. Thank You Jesus. Praise the Lord continually and always 🙏.
ReplyDeleteThose who know the Lord trust Him, because He will not leave those who come to Him. Psalm 9:10
Amen dear sister Janet! Joining in your beautiful prayer.
DeleteHe is an endless Well of Living Water to our souls.
Amen and Amen. 🙏
DeleteI am praying for showers and showers of healing blessings for your husband, as well as Wisdom and Guidance Prayers for his medical team and you, our dear PEBGDesigns. In Jesus' Name. Amen.
ReplyDeleteDitto for you also MadFox!
Lord send down Your Holy Spirit and renew them and our entire JC Family. Amen.
Thanks be to God for this body of praying believers. In reading The Secret of Intercessory Prayer, because of this JC Family of Mighty Prayer Warriors, I came to know through experience, the truth in the statement: The body of Christ works properly with members praying for each other! Prayer is the immunity system of the body of Christ. Through prayer, we fight off the invasive forces that seek to dis-ease and afflict the body of Christ.
ReplyDeletePlease know I thank God that I am blessed to know and feel your love for Him, and for one another, as I pray to Him for you and yours. Blessings now and forevermore from His vast abundant store. I ask. I seek. I knock. I praise. I thank. In Jesus' Name. Amen.
It's an honor to gather in His name with y'all, thank you Payton family for the space and the place! ♥️🙏
DeleteHallelujah Brie and AMEN!
DeleteAmen Brie, Audra and Kathy! How blessed we are to be apart of this beautiful family of believers. Let us come to the Cross together. Amen, Thank you to the Payton family who made this possible. God bless you. Happy Easter to all my JC Family!
DeleteThinking of you dear MadFox. Hope you are encouraged and getting some rest. Praying God's faithfulness will be shining like the sun. May God grant all yours prayers those of our dear JC Family! Thank you Father for this in the Name of Jesus.
ReplyDeleteHOLY TUESDAY:
JESUS TEACHES IN THE TEMPLE FOR THE LAST TIME (Matt 21:23-23:39).
GOD SENDS THE INVITATION TO ENJOY HIS SACRIFICE.
Loving Father, We give thanks for this privileged time where we are called to draw near to Jesus. May we experience this Holy week by entering more and more into Your logic of Love and self-giving. Help us during this time to come out of ourselves and reach out to the outskirts of existence, helping our brothers and sisters as Christ instructs us to. For some of our love ones and others who have not yet received Your gift of salvation, may this be the time for them to make the decision and follow You all the way. Nothing is impossible for You Lord.
This message of the cross may be hard for them to understand, they may ask, how can death give way to life or how can our weaknesses become strength? Your Word carries the answers. The work on the cross is FININSHED! Reveal to them that Jesus being God, took on human flesh and suffered the most humiliating death so that they may have life and have it more abundantly, and walked in the way He taught, so that they too can be in eternity with Him. Nothing is impossible for You.
I thank You and ask this in the name of Jesus, our Savior. Amen.
Blessings and Peace.

Amen and Amen, Maplewood! So thankful that we know 'the rest of the story,' for us and our loved ones who believe.

ReplyDeleteI'm trusting the Lord with all my heart. Going to Brooklyn tomorrow and taking my Mom to the doctor's and then on Friday, taking my Sister for her gel injections in her knees. Praying all will work out well because God will be guiding it all. Got all my cooking for Rick done and I'm so blessed he's getting stronger. Thank you so much for your prayers. Hope he tries to do what's right for him. I know he loves his beer and wine. It's in God's Hands. Been praying on it.
ReplyDeleteDear Brie, Rest in Him who loves you. He knows what you're going through with Keith. Just keep walking in His love. Stay in the prsent where our Lord meets you. Today's devotion is all about trusting in Him. I know you do. Much love to you and all our dear JC Family.

DeleteYes dear Jeanne, the Lord's favor on your travel and plenty of supernatural strength for fulfilling the ministry He's given you for your mom, sister & your DH. Love & blessings 🙏💕
DeleteThanks my dear brother and sister! I’m so blessed to have you in this family to encourage me and pray for me. We are blessed to have each other and to be bound by our faith and love in the Lord.
DeleteThank you Holy Spirit for your watchful eyes and protection over Jeanne in her travels and care for her family members. ♥️🙏
DeleteLove Conquers All (LCA) wrote above in 2020 that they were not a crier. THIS POST was prompted by it. Like LCA, a strident non-crier would accurately describe me for nearly six decades. The result of typical male machismo, military training to be "tough", and teen years where it hid wounds and insecurities.
ReplyDeleteThis past Sunday, with the approval from Emory's team, my wife and I returned to church for the first time since my diagnosis. As we greeted folks prior to worship, the pastor was finalizing some of the needed assistance for the service. He asked if I would read a scripture... cheerfully agreed, while he apologized for it being "a little lengthy." I didn't know until seated that he had selected the prodigal son parable. I quickly scanned it to be sure there weren't any challenging pronounciations... didn't want to embarrass myself on my first Sunday back!
Today's JC reading is about Trust. Trust in God, in His love for us, and His desire for us to see the world as He sees it: with love, grace, and mercy. Jesus shares this by having the prodigal not trusting that his current circumstances were "good enough." This was despite health, wealth, youth, a caring father... in short a blessed life. Yet it was insufficient in the younger son's view and with his inheritance, he left.
Since it was my first time reading scripture in 18 months, before I read the passage, I said to the congregation, "yes it's a voice from the past," and then joked that I hadn't realized the pastor had picked me to read the prodigal son! As I resolutely read through the passage, I realized in so many ways I AM THE PRODIGAL SON (arent we all?!). With a good report from the previous week, the first time back at worship, and the "coincidence" of reading this parable, I was overwhelmed.
With the emotion building quickly, and peaking as I haltingly choked through the Father literally running to the son, I stopped. It was evident that continuing simply wasn't possible... so, asked my wife to come up and finish, which she graciously did. In this journey of life, we must come to TRUST. When we do so, we can't help but be humbled and appreciate Jesus on the cross, and God’s love, grace, and mercy. Amen.
MadFox, thank you for sharing this wonderful story. I'm glad you were able to attend church once again. It's important to worship with our brothers and sisters in Christ. Continued healing and remission brother.
DeleteTJ
Dear MadFox, it felt as if I was there hearing you read that story, knowing your heart must've felt such gladness, honor &, blessing to have been picked to read it. I'm sure the congregation fully understood that the tears you were shedding were tears of an offering of gratitude & thanks to the Almighty who has held you through the journey of uncertainty. Thank you for sharing. Love & blessings to you & your wife💕🙏
DeleteJan, indeed lots of gratitude for God's continued mercy and grace. Thanks TJ and Brie, if you felt you were there, then the Spirit is in it! Peace to you all.
DeleteDear MadFox, Thanks for opening your beautiful heart to us and sharing your experience up at the pulpit. What a wonderful thing it must have been to finally return to your Church with a good report and be asked to do one of the readings. The fact that you were given this reading is quite remarkable but we know God had prepared this for you. Your heart was welling up inside because you were returning too but not from a sinful stretch of time but from a time of medical treatment for your condition. Your strong faith in the Lord always remained steadfast and true. Although the circumstances that separated you from your Church differed from the reasons the prodigal son left his father, you and the prodigal son were both received with joy and love. Whenever we return to our loving Father, He receives us with love and rejoicing. What a blessing to be loved with an unconditional and everlasting love!
DeleteI too, was there with you in heart, mind, soul, and Spirit, Madfox. I was truly lifted up by your TESTimony Thanks for sharing. Much ❤, Brie
DeleteMad 🦊, reading your sharing of this story wrecked me. I glorify God as the director in this latest act of your recovery that you so humbly share with us. Happy crying!
DeleteYet another Divine Appointment. I just stopped by to see what condition your condition was in. Results: You are no longer Prodigal, our MadFox!
DeleteMuch Love and Many Prayers.
In Jesus' Name. Amen!
Trusting you Lord Jesus, not leaning on our own understanding. Only You know the hearts and minds of people in this fallen world. Keep us focused on You throughout this day and not on circumstances or the 'news'. Keep us in tune with your Heart, following You even as You have said "follow Me". Amen
ReplyDeleteJoining in this prayer with you brother Peter🙏. Fine morsels of spiritual food to share with you &, others today. Love & blessings 💕
DeleteAmen to that beautiful prayer dear Peter. Joining right in too! Thank you for expressing it so perfectly. The Spirit is moving in you. Hallelujah
DeleteI pray to only focus on the real good "news", that we know how the story ends. A life everlasting with the ONE TRUE GOD. Thank you Jesus for paving the way.
DeletePrayers please warriors for hubby today. He's going to dermatologist to check once again on a suspicious area on his ear. So far the Lord has protected that area. Thank you dear ones for prayers 💕🙏.
ReplyDelete💕🙏, 💕🙏, 💕🙏. Amen.
DeletePraying for your hubby, Jan, as I have had a similar issue. Declaring all cells free and clear of any stage of malignancy. Thank you Jesus!
DeletePraying for your darling husband that God will guide the doctor to an accurate evaluation and the perfect treatment. Thank You Jesus 🙏
ReplyDeletePraying for you all, JC family. When you lay your head down this night, be still and know that God is in control, and that you may rest in the comfort of his love and righteousness. He is our refuge and strong tower! Peace🙏
ReplyDeleteAmen and thank you dear Rich!
DeleteAccepting your invitation for nite nite time 😉👏♥️🙏
ReplyDeleteSleep well dear sister! Goodnight
ReplyDeleteI trust You Jesus! Amen. I trust Him with my life and my tomorrows. I have seen His faithfulness so many times in my life. I know He will continue to open doors, and heal weaknesses, and comfort hearts. Wait on the Lord. Be patient in prayer. Trust with your whole heart, mind and soul. Believe His promises and that the best is yet to come. This is just a flash in the pan compared to the long line of eternity with the Lord. He has gone Home to prepare a place for us and it will be beautiful and more glorious than we could ever imagine. And we'll be able to look upon the Face of Jesus and be reunited with our loved ones. God's Words are true so you can stake your lives on them. Rest in His peace because He takes care of our problems if we truly surrender to Him. He leads us along our paths and adds light to our dark days. He lifts us up out of our pain and misery and sets us up high so we can clearly see His blessings. We serve such a good and faithful God.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your prayers for Rick, Jack and Maureen. Rick is beginning to feel better. Jack is getting an endoscopy and a colonoscopy today to find out why he is bleeding internally following his ablation. Maureen is getting an MRI today to find out why she has been having seizures. Also my cousin Larry has pneumonia. Thanks for your prayers. Praying for my dear ones here and your loved ones. We pray for each other with gratitude in the Name of Jesus because sincere prayers from hearts of faith are so powerful, and the Name of Jesus is above every other name.
Have a blessed day in the Lord. Try not to lean on your own understanding. Look up from where your Help cometh!
Psalm 9:9-10
The LORD is a stronghold for the oppressed,
a stronghold in times of trouble.
And those who know your name put their trust in you,
for you, O LORD, have not forsaken those who seek you.
Psalm 18:6
In my distress I called upon the LORD;
to my God I cried for help.
From his temple he heard my voice,
and my cry to him reached his ears.
Psalm 50:15
and call upon me in the day of trouble;
I will deliver you, and you shall glorify me.
Psalm 55:22
Cast your burden on the LORD,
and he will sustain you;
he will never permit
the righteous to be moved.
Psalm 94:14
For the LORD will not forsake his people;
he will not abandon his heritage;
Joining in prayers with you Jeanne 🙏. I am so grateful to the Lord for giving me so many people to share our burdens, just like He gave His only begotten Son Jesus, Simon to help Him carry the cross to Calvary. He gives us each other to lean on and share, support, pray, and love one another in all our circumstances. We serve a living God that has an unfailing love for us and dwells within us. May His mighty power heal and save all those in need. In Jesus name, I pray, Amen 🙏. God bless!
DeleteThank for feast this morning dear Jeanne. Praying that Jack, Maureen & Larry will feel the loving, caring touch of Jesus as He guides them through these trials. May they use their trust muscle s &, not waiver &, give way to the enemy's lies. Amen!💞🙏🌈
DeleteDear Janet! Amen! God put you and all our JC Family before us to encourage our weary hearts, pray for us and lift us out of our troubles. God helps us carry our burdens but all of you also share them because we care about each other. May God heal and save all those in need! Amen and Thank you for your prayers.
DeleteDear Jan, Thanks for your prayers and may Jack, Maureen and Larry feel the loving care of the Lord as He carries them through these trials. Amen. May they trust in Him. Maureen has Alzheimers but she always loved Jesus and He knows that. Amen. May they trust in Him because He is so much greater than he that is in the world!
JC today: "Before you arise from your bed in the morning, I have already arranged the events of your day." Yesterday, I had a very busy morning with work and over lunch, led a zoom meeting. Mid-morning, I had texted a friend's wife and asked if I could come sit in the afternoon at the hospital in relief to allow her a break. She agreed.
ReplyDeleteSo, after my meeting, I headed to the hospital. While there a doc explained details of his cancer procedure to my friend. I was able to share about getting peace with cancer only by faith with both. Crazily, a longtime friend from my military days and who has been battling cancer for 13 years had been called yesterday to come talk to the Oncologist regarding the same situation today.
Due to my presence earlier, last night, I was able to tell his wife what might be coming up... coincidence?! Ha, not! He amazed me in His timing and the way that the day played out. Please pray for both of these friends for the best possible outcomes and for God's right hand to be extending peace. Thank you. Amen.
The wonderful blessings of God! His mighty works are beyond our understanding and His mighty power is above all we could ever even comprehend. May He touch the lives of each one and bring forth miracles of His healing power. In Jesus name, I pray, Amen 🙏. Peace be with you 🙏.
DeleteThe road you've traveled MadFox serves as a map for those you encounter who are also touched by this disease. You are now a forged tool to be used to point others to trust in Jesus. Hallelujah! Praying for this couple as they journey through this road. 🙏🙏🙏
DeleteSurely The Presence Of The Lord Was In This Place.
DeleteI got HS goose bumbs when I read of yet another, Divine Appointment/Divine Encounter!
Way to go MadFox, letting him keep on using you to overflow His Blessings into the lives of others, along with Free Refills back into yours.
What a blessing you are to share the TESTimony so we all can benefit more from a live witness of today's devotion...I have already arranged the events of your day. EVERY DAY provides many opportunities (aka Divine Appointments/Divine Encounters) for you to learn MY WAYS AND GROW closer to me.
Smiling and singing, Good Night My Love. In Jesus' Name. Amen!
I love to read and hear about divine appointments. I pray to stay alert to them every day, whether they make it on to my calendar or not. What invitations for appointments might you accept today? Which ones didn't you see coming? Thank you Holy Spirit for directing me ♥️✝️
DeleteHow amazing our God is! He arranges our days and plans for His own purposes. He guides our steps to share our knowledge and experience with those in need, to bring comfort to them and soothe their worried minds. You knew you were put in the right place at the right time to speak to your friend's wife. And it's no accident your other friend from the Military was also going through a similar thing. God knows your strength of faith and you are a bright light to others, especially to those going through similar challenges. And to me too! God is using you because you are a willing and faithful instrument in His mighty Hands. Much love dear brother. Onward and Upward.
DeleteJoining all prayers for your healing and the healing of your two friends, and all our loved ones here. Thanking God for this in the powerful Name of Christ Jesus, our Risen Lord.
DeleteLast night when the text mentioned that they got a call to come in and that the same procedure had been mentioned in passing - it was indeed a great way to help prepare them by saying read up prior so they could be better informed and hopefully less surprised or stressed. Amazed and Very blessed.
DeleteTrust in Him at all times, you people; pour out your heart before Him; God is a refuge for us. (Psalm 62:8). Casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you. (1 Peter 5:7). What is man that You are mindful of him,and the son of man that You visit him? (Psalm 8:4). So we fasted and entreated our God for this, and He answered our prayer. (Ezra 8:23).
ReplyDeleteThanks for feeding us well, dear sister. Praying God is answering your prayers and leading you to your heart's desires.
DeleteAMPC Proverbs 3:5-6: Lean on, trust in, and be confident in the Lord with all your heart and mind and do not rely on your own insight or understanding. In all your ways know, recognize, and acknowledge Him, and He will direct and make straight and plain your paths.
ReplyDelete"do not rely on your own insight or understanding." Sounds a bit like blind faith?
True faith, faith in our Lord Jesus Christ is never blind. Though we can't see one second from now, He does. He sees every moment of all our days for each one. He knows the way we should go, even if to us it seems He's leading us down a dead end. (I know that one!).
In the scriptures, how many times do we read of impossible situations; then suddenly He opened a way. Classic example is the Red Sea crossing on DRY land, not even getting feet wet!
Lord Jesus I trust You at all times and in all circumstances, You know what's best. Thank You that You have my best interests at Heart, Amen.
Wonderful verse and insight! Trusting Him to lead us through every storm and wilderness. Amen! He really cares about us. Thank You Jesus!
DeleteLuke 1:78-79
Through the tender mercy of our God,
with which the Dayspring from on high has visited us;
to give light to those who sit in darkness and the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace.
Thank dear sis for words to start my day. So thankful for you😍🙏🌈
ReplyDeletePrayers please dear warriors. Our dear friend Jeff has been struggling through possible blindness. One eye is practically blind & now the other one has also been attacked by the same disease. His wife Sherry can also use prayers for strength through this. Thank you & bless each one of you💞
ReplyDelete😍🙏🌈 Praying for, and with, Jeff and Sherry, as it is written: “Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, Nor have entered into the heart of man The things which God has prepared for those who love Him.” And we do. In Jesus' Name. Amen!
DeleteJoining all prayers for God to heal your friend Jeff completely so both eyes will be perfect again. He can do all things and we trust Him to bring comfort, strength and peace of mind to Jeff and his good wife Sherry.
DeleteThank You Father for all this and for healing MadFox and his two friends with cancer, in the Name of Jesus!
I will trust my Heavenly Father with my whole heart. For He already have my day plan.
ReplyDeleteI have been reading the posts in silent 'background' mode for a a few months..I have enjoyed the sustenance and spiritual food you contributors have provided..Thank You!
ReplyDeleteThis morning I've decided to be bold and join you...been reading/absorbing JC for a few years.. still relevant, still fresh, still rich..
Welcome to the posting side of town, Ky_Bob. We are so glad to see you here. All TESTimonies and prayers are valuable, including yours. Feel free to share as the Holy Spirit leads you. In Jesus' Name. Amen!
DeleteYou're not the lone ranger. Most here did the same - read for months or years before posting. Welcome.
DeleteWelcome Ky_Bob to JC Warriors. We are happy you are here.
DeleteWelcome, Ky_Bob! Glad you're here!
ReplyDeleteGood morning my beautiful prayer warriors. If you would, please keep my sweet man Jon in your prayers today. Today marks two years that his father was called home to be with our Savior due to complications from Covid. It's already been a tough morning for Jon.
Sweet man, Jon has my prayers. Weeping may endure for a night, BUT JOY comes in the mourning. In Jesus' Name. Amen.
DeleteDear Suzanne, Praying your dear man, Jon will feel the comfort of God surrounding him like a warm, soft blanket around him. May he be assured that his good Dad is Home and will someday be reunited with him. Thank you Father for this in Jesus' Name.
DeleteI'm taking my prayers for all requests to the gym after several days of being cooped up due to stormy weather and even more snow. I trust you Jesus that all will "work out" according to your plan for good.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your day out in the world dear Audra. Hope and pray the snow has finally ended so you can enjoy the sweetness of being outside. Have a good day in the Lord.
DeleteI wii trust you Jesus. Thank you for taking my cross.
ReplyDeleteAmen dear Anonymous. He wants you to lay your heavy burdens on Him so He can make them light.
DeleteIsaiah 41:10
Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.
Matthew 11:28-30
Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
We do not strengthen ourselves in the LORD until we give up all dependence on everything else, and we are forced to depend upon Him alone. As long as we trust in other things, nothing but disappointment will come upon us. Yet, for many people the thought of waiting upon God alone seems one of the most precarious things we can do in our day. Is there not a natural tendency to reach out for something in addition to depending upon God? Is it not until everything else fails that I puts his trust in God alone? Help to come to you Lord first, forgive me for going where God didnt send me ?
ReplyDeleteSo much truth dear Min Ahadi. Thank you for sharing it. Amen! Hope you and your family are doing well. You are always in my prayers. I am trusting God to keep me strong and healthy. And to heal my dear BIL Jack and SIL Maureen and my good cousin Larry. Praying also that He heals my friend Ron whose foot was so swollen he had to go to the ER yesterday. Putting all things and concerns into His mighty Hands to handle. He understands my heart better than anyone else. This world can’t help us like our great God can. His Words and promises are reliable. He can do all things. We trust in Him and we are helped. Hallelujah!
DeleteMay I request prayers here? My 27 yr old daughter is undergoing treatment for Hodgkins Lymphoma. This is the same Cancer that her grandma passed from at 33 yrs. She has already had complications from her treatment but is still quite early on in her treatment protocol.

Praying for your friend and former DIL's Dad. I'm sorry for His family but I'm glad God in His mercy is lifting him up out of his pain and misery and bringing him Home. Joining your prayer that they will see him again and their joy will be full. Thank You Father for this and a smooth passage for her dad and a blanket of comfort and peace over his family in the Name of Christ Jesus, our Risen Lord and Savior. Amen
