Rising early....

Rising early....

I had to chuckle this morning as I read "Jesus calling".  It seems like I have been tossing and turning all night with Fibro...all of my joints feeling twice their size and throbbing away for whatever the reason...so finally turned on the light at 4:30 am....only to read that devotional...I knew it anyway....but it was just another reminder of God's all knowing, all powerful, all present being...His infinite plans, waiting for us on each new day...He never sleeps, never forsakes..always loves...always cares...always protects...always watches....always strengthens...

Thank YOU....for being there no matter what...planning, caring, watching...


January 31
I am your Strength and ShieldI plan out each day and have it ready for you, long before you arise from bed. I also provide the strength you need each step of the way. Instead of assessing your energy level and wondering about what’s on the road ahead, concentrate on staying in touch with Me. My Power flows freely into you through our open communication. Refuse to waste energy worrying, and you will have strength to spare.
Whenever you start to feel afraid, remember that I am your Shield. But unlike inanimate armor, I am always alert and active. My Presence watches over you continually, protecting you from both known and unknown dangers. Entrust yourself to My watchcare, which is the best security system available. I am with you and will watch over you wherever you go.
The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and I am helped. My heart leaps for joy and I will give thanks to him in song.
—Psalm 28:7

“Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.”
—Matthew 6:34

When I am afraid, I will trust in you. In God, whose word I praise, in God I trust; I will not be afraid. What can mortal man do to me?
—Psalm 56:3–4

“I am with you and will watch over you wherever you go, and I will bring you back to this land. I will not leave you until I have done what I have promised you.”
—Genesis 28:15
