As we find ourselves in the final weeks of 2010, I just wanted to offer encouragement and words from the Lord to under-gird us. I know that this time of the year can be overwhelming as we try to Christmas shop, attend and throw parties and focus on our families.
I, personally, just want to take a deep breath and allow these words from God to sink deep into my heart! My prayer is that you will be encouraged through these words, embrace December with your whole heart and enjoy the last 5 weeks of the year!!
We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed. 2 Corinthians 4:8-9
Now, you might not think this is encouraging, but this is what I felt the Lord saying to me: He has not crushed me, but cushioned me; He has not placed me in a pit of despair, but lifted me up; He has not abandoned me, but carried me through it all; He has not allowed me to be struck down, but kept me from being destroyed by His mighty right hand.
He is a God of love, yeah, unconditional love! May God shine His face upon you today and reveal Himself to you in a mighty and powerful way! Blessing Beloved of the Lord!
