At the time I did not realize I would be the recipient in such a monumental way of each of these “one-anotherings.”
This past year, I have known God as never before. Part of the reason is because of the goodness of God's people who took on His role and have served me in my suffering, time and time again, often at the expense of themselves.
I remain overwhelmed and truly grateful.
Be still and know that I am God. Psalm 46:10(My verse today because it's still where I need to be.*)
Obviously need it because I had this written in my am blog notes draft, saw it etched over the chapel at Baptist Women's Hospital and just finished my pm reading in Jesus Calling and there it was. 3 times of anything always gets my attention. It's my "rule" for a "heads up."
Interesting how the Father seems to be saying the same things to his children, even though separated geographically by great distances.
ReplyDeleteThis morning my prayer partner shared with me the word of the Lord that she had received clearly last Thursday: GOD REIGNS! Not, He said that He would, nor, some day He will, but here, now; in this present situation, in whatever storm I may be going through, GOD REIGNS!
When Jesus was sleeping in the boat, He was in perfect control, even though the disciples were beside themselves with fear! "Peace, be still."
We can be still, and know that God is God and that He reigns!
