Let Jesus Touch You





MAY JESUS TOUCH YOU


The Bible doesn't say we will never have trials, sadness or disappointments. But it does say we can come to Jesus in our need and ask for His touch. Don't be afraid to ask Him today for a healing touch.


Light for Today: Jesus reached out and touched the man...Matthew 8:3a NLT

I Choose Joy








CHOOSING JOY




I can't control the weather.




I can't control the people.




I can't control aging.




I can't control death.




I can't control the prices.




BUT




I can choose what I think about.




I can choose to count my blessings.




I can choose to learn from my mistakes.




I can choose to forgive.




I can choose faith when the way is dark.




I can choose to let the past go.




I can choose to have hope.






I CAN CHOOSE JOY!!




Light for Today: The LORD your God is with you, He is mighty to save. He will take great delight in you, He will quiet you with His love, He will rejoice over you with singing. Zephaniah 3:17 NLT

Heavy Heart





HEAVY HEART


Do you have a friend that is carrying a burden causing her to have a heavy heart? Are you willing to share that burden? Are you willing to also have a heavy heart? Are you willing to spend time at night in prayer? Ask God to let you have part of the burden. It will ease the load on your friend so her heart will not be so heavy. Gladly help her bear the burden. You will be blessed.



Light for Today: Bear ye one anothers burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ. Galatians 6:2

Guarding thoughts





GUARD YOUR THOUGHTS

What you think ~ you are.



We can choose what we fill our minds with. If we choose bad thoughts they will eventually destroy us. If we let our minds go as they will we will soon have thoughts that are like thorns and thistles. Don't worry! Rather give thanks. By thinking and meditating on God's word we fill our minds with truth. We will become more like Jesus. Think about God and keep your mind pure.



Light for Today: For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he: Eat and drink, saith he to thee; but his heart is not with thee. Proverbs 23:7

Storms




THANK YOU, LORD, FOR THE STORM


I love sunshine and I thank you for it,


But just as much I thank you for the storms.


Because of the storms I cling tightly to Your hand


And realize I need Your strength.


Without reservation, I yield myself


to You


So that You can do with me


What is best and brings glory to Your name.



Light for Today: Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and your plans will succeed. Proverbs 16:3

And There Came A Lion





AND THERE CAME A LION


One would not think that a lion was a special blessing from God but it could be God's opportunity in disguise. Every difficulty that comes our way is God's opportunity if we choose to let it be. We must recognize it as God's opportunity no matter how loud the lion's roar. The lion that came to young David was a wonderful opportunity. If he had faltered and not taken the lion by the beard and killed him he probably would never have come to be God's chosen King of Israel.



Light for Today: And David said unto Saul, thy servant kept his father's sheep, and there came a lion... 1 Samuel 17:34
