"So now faith, hope, and love abide, these three: but the greatest of these is love."
1Corinthians 13:13 ESV
While at my mother-in-law's funeral I began to ponder on how she affected all the
lives around her. From the smallest of her great-grandchildren, to her grandchildren,
to her oldest child, friend or neighbor she always made everyone feel at home.
The word LEGACY popped into my mind and I then realized the legacy she left
with us all. There is absolutely no question about it. It was totally and undeniably
UNCONDITIONAL LOVE!!!!!
I can only pray that I will have such a legacy to pass on to all my loved ones.
Thanks mom for all you imparted to me.
Father, help us to cling to Your truth and abide in Your ways that we may also
leave such a blessed legacy. Amen.

Cast Your Cares on the Lord
"Cast your cares on the Lord
and He will sustain you;
he will never let the righteous
fall." Psalm 55:22
In reading this scripture I realized that there are just too many times that
I forget this truth.
When a problem comes to the surface where do I run? I do not like not
being in control, so try as I will, it all ends up being in vain. I just end up
wallowing in fear and struggling to stay afloat rather then giving it to God.
I forget where my salvation lies.
Forgive me, O Lord, when I forget to run into Your arms in my times of need.
You are always here for me and all I have to do is reach out and call on your
name. In Jesus name. Amen

Matthew 10:26 (NIV)
"... There is nothing concealed that will not be disclosed, or hidden that will not be made known."
In reading Matthew 10:26 this morning I discovered that God sometimes, purposely, keeps us in the dark so that we will relinquish control to Him.
The unknown is frightening to us, but God will reveal what is hidden in His timing. The season of 'truth' will come to 'light'.
Whether it is in our individual lives, corporately, or governmental, the concealed will not stay hidden forever.
God has a way of bringing things to the surface just at the right time. We ourselves may not see it as being such, but His ways are not our ways and we are not to question why, but believe in faith that He has all under control.
Father, thank you for revealing to us those things that have been hidden and allowing us to once again see You at work in our lives and the lives others. In Jesus name, Amen.
