WOW!

Words 

Of 

Wisdom Needed!

5 words or less could help!

Bobby A. quoting 5 words from "Crazy Ada"---"Oh, just forget about it." Sometimes that can be the "best" advice! When taken with the intent to quit "stewing" about things you can't change or don't mount to a hill of beans, forgetting, as to let go, can help. 

Pithy with a Punch!

A need for this age-related + memory-loss lady.

 

Fewer words with deeper truths to remember. 

Think.....Peace Giving. (John 14:27)

GOD'S GRACE

KEEPS PACE

WITH WHAT WE FACE! (Buddy A.)

GOD'S GRACE.....

I EMBRACE....

TO GUIDE MY PACE. (DAL)

Praying.....Rein me in LORD, away from distractions and busyness, to love you more and serve others well!

LOOKING TO JESUS!

"Run the Race"! 

In this season of life, running isn't always an option! I would probably trip over my cane! Plus, endurance would probably be short-lived.

Bible Marginalia reminded me, "entrusting to Him is key to endurance."

Run the Race. Which race? Hebrews 12:1 gives the answer, "the one set before us."

Bible Marginalia again......Life of faith = long run...ie not a sprint or an easy run. 

Before discouragement set in, I read the answer to running the race in the life of faith. The all important phrase of Hebrews 12:2----looking to Jesus! 

Think focusing, trusting and relying on "Jesus, the name above all names" as the source of our life of faith. (Philippians 2:9)

Looking to Jesus at my life stage/age  needs more than a ck off the list quiet time.

It can require extended time.....often that includes being still, looking up and out the window that frames my prayer chair. Blue skies or rainy fog--the weather doesn't seem to matter.  

It's the condition of my heart that matters as I seek time with Him.

 

Know Peace. No Fear!

Looking to Jesus is soul affirming.
