I sit here feeling like I survived yet another Mother’s Day–but I’ve got the anniversary of my parent’s accident staring me in the face this coming Sunday and these huge life choices looming for this Fall–and I don’t know what to write about anymore. Words just tumble over and over again through my mind.

But we’ve been faithful to be in the pew Sundays and Wednesdays lately and the Lord has been faithful to feed my heart through our preacher’s words and here’s what keeps popping out of the mire for me…

“Great is thy faithfulness! Great is thy faithfulness! Morning by morning new mercies I see. All I have needed, thy hand hath provided. Great is thy faithfulness, Lord unto me.” (Great is Thy Faithfulness, hymn)

“If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed.” (James 1:5-6)

“Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine! Oh what a foretaste of glory divine!” (Blessed Assurance, hymn)

“There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.” (1 John 4:18)

“Have I not commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.” (Joshua 1:9)

“The Lord is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him. The Lord is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him.” (Lamentations 3:24-25)

 “Trust in the Lord, and do good; so shall thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed. Delight thyself also in the Lord; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart. Commit thy way unto the Lord: trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass. And he shall bring forth thy righteousness as the light, and thy judgement as the noonday. Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for him…” (Psalms 37:3-7)
