I'm praying everyone has a safe week, that we listen to the voice of the Holy Spirit, and lead with love.

When your child is grown and telling people about their childhood… What is one thing you hope they say about you as their parent? Not about what you bought them. Not about where you took them. But about how you made them feel or what you taught them about life. For example: “My mom always prayed for us.” “My dad taught me how to handle hard things.” “My parents made our house feel safe.” What do you hope your child says one day?

Seek the LORD while He may be found; call upon Him while He is near. •Isaiah 55:6• When we look at what’s going on in the world, it may be hard to see that God is near. Oh, but He is! EVERYTHING is in His hands! No matter how we may feel about whatever is going on, God either causes it or allows it—and it’s all for His glory. We have to get out of the mindset and heart posture of blaming people. We’re fighting SPIRITUAL wickedness in high places, but God is in total control! It’s ok to speak how we feel and voice our concerns and opinions. God welcomes that! He wants us to bring all of our feelings, questions, and concerns to Him in prayer so He can reveal HIS truth and HIS plans—because they’re the only ones that matter! If we’re not at His feet—praying, asking, seeking, knocking, getting revelation of the things He wants to show us, and reading our Bibles (it’s literally playing out before our very eyes)—then we’ll perish from fear, deception, and lack of knowledge. Yeah, the things going on in the world right now are scary, but Jesus is greater! The closer we get to Him, the less we’re afraid. If we find ourselves in a state of panic or fear, let that be our sign to seek Him a whole lot more. So don't fear, just pray! Stay in a posture of prayer, and let’s keep our eyes on Jesus! Remember, we’re not of this world!!! •Proverbs 21:1• The king’s heart is in the hand of the LORD, like the rivers of water; He turns it wherever He wishes. God is sovereign—over every person, place, government, and nation. Every leader, every “king”, is subject to His will. Just as He did with Pharaoh in Exodus and King Cyrus in Isaiah, God guides the decisions of rulers to fulfill HIS purpose. Nothing is ever random, “out of the blue”, or coincidental with God. Everything happening is a part of His divine plan. Regardless of our own futile or evil human intentions—His purpose and plan will be fulfilled! His plans are always for our good, so let’s rest in that!🙏🏾❤️❤️ •Psalm 91-8•

Jesus, meet us where we feel weak. Remind us you are more than enough and give us everything we need to get through each day. Amen
