Are you going through changes in your life? I am personally! What about sickness that has touched your family?
I wanted to just talk about my thankfulness for God’s unending promises… I just need to share a few Promises I am holding onto tighter than ever today!
“Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful.” ~ Hebrews 10:23
"The LORD is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield and the horn of my salvation. He is my stronghold, my refuge and my savior— from violent men You save me. I call to the LORD, who is worthy of praise, and I am saved from my enemies." ~ 2 Samuel 22:2-4
“And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for you: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.” ~ 2 Corinthians 12:9
“I love you, O LORD, my strength. The LORD is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge. He is my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold. I call to the LORD, who is worthy of praise, and I am saved from my enemies.” ~ Psalm 18:1-3
“God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.” ~ Psalm 46:1
“The LORD is gracious and righteous; our God is full of compassion. The LORD protects the simple-hearted; when I was in great need, He saved me. Be at rest once more, O my soul, for the LORD has been good to you.” ~ Psalm 116:5-7
“But the Lord is faithful, who will establish you and guard you from the evil one.” ~ 2 Thessalonians 3:3
“I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me.” ~ Philippians 4:13
“Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have. For He Himself has said, ‘I will never leave you nor forsake you.’” ~ Hebrews 13:5
“Casting all your care upon Him; for He cares for you.” ~ 1 Peter 5:7
“For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the LORD, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.” ~ Jeremiah 29:11
Thankfulness will bring peace no matter the circumstance. Is it easy? Nope! Surrender through thankfulness rarely is!
The dictionary defines the word “PEACE” as freedom from war or conflict; tranquility, a calm and quiet state, free from disturbances or noise; a state of mental calm and serenity, with no anxiety; harmony.
And my definition:
Complete surrender to God’s will; letting His breath breathe life into my soul; trusting completely that God has it all under control, regardless of what it looks like… I know there is no PEACE without faith, but it also takes thankfulness.
This is just what I need today… how about you? Share a promise you are thankful for today!
In His Grace, Carin
