Yesterday my dad took the time to phone me and tell me about what he had been watching on TV. There was a man talking about the promise found in Deuteronomy 28, a chapter about blessings and curses. My dad was particularly struck by verse 7 - The Lord will grant that the enemies who rise up against you will be defeated before you. They will come at you from one direction but flee from you in seven.
I got an email from Joan White, a friend of my mother's. She wrote: "I was talking to your Mom last night and know you have been sailing through some troubled waters lately....and I want you to know that I will be praying for you that day and each day until then for strength, clarity of thought and a quiet spirit. I pray you will be encouraged and know that you are loved and prayed for today. Remember Jesus is in the boat with you."
- chatting with my wise momma
- a "Verse of the Day. Colossians 1:8 says, "And let the peace that comes from Christ rule in your hearts. For as members of one body you are called to live in peace. And always be thankful."
- a video posted by my awesome niece Sidsel Richmond. She wrote "Life is tough but so are you." Check it out the video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m5yCOSHeYn4
I hope you are encouraged this day as well.....
