Lord I need your guidance and am asking for you to put people in my pathways to show me your will and direction. Between the health problems of my daughter, son and myself and trying to find a job as a single parent it is overwhelming. I appreciate everything you have done for me now and always.
In Jesus Name I pray Amen

God loves you - No Matter What! Dear, read Isaiah 26:3. See I believe we all have at times, probably most, taken our eyes off of Jesus and put our eyes on what's going on around us. We look at the situations that will only last for a short time even your daughter's illness. John 1 tells us the Word was with God and the Word was God - This is telling us that Jesus is the Word. When you keep your eyes on Jesus you are studying His Word, meditating on it(Joshua 1:8), and then doing what He commands us to do. God is pleased with our Faith but life brings such curveballs and we want immediate relief from the blows. God, however does things differently. He doesn't always give us what we want right away because why would we need Faith if all we had to do is ask and got it right away. The Faith comes in times of testing and waiting. During these times God is maturing us and developing fruits of righteousness such as: temperance (self-comtrol), patience, and see Galatians chapter 5.
Now, don't get me wrong God will bless you with things that don't always take so long but He is who He is and He does what He does. At some point you started walking in the flesh and looking at your situation so now go back to the Word of God and only believe what God says to you about your situations. Get a Bible with a concordance in it and look up words that pertain to your situation. Then find the scripture that goes for that situation and meditate on it. Be Encouraged - But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; They shall run, and not be weary; they shall walk, and not faint(Isaiah 40:31). You tell me you don't get peace from that scripture- if you didn't read it again. That is the peace that Jesus is giving you, it's not only a good feeling, the Lord is conforting you! That is how you keep your mind stayed on Him and have perfect peace. Remember His Word and start speaking life to your situations by speaking what God's Word says out loud on a daily basis.. God Loves You So Much - He gave His Life to save YOU! You are special to Him. I love you and God Bless!
